Emily Atkinson Sun, April 30, 2023 at 5:43 a.m. MST·2 min read Russian troops who dug trenches in Chernobyl forest during their occupation of the area have been struck down with radiation sickness, authorities have confirmed.

Ukrainians living near the nuclear power station that exploded 37 years ago, and choked the surrounding area in radioactive contaminants, warned the Russians when they arrived against setting up camp in the forest.

But the occupiers who, as one resident put it to The Times, “understood the risks” but were “just thick”, installed themselves in the forest, reportedly carved out trenches, fished in the reactor’s cooling channel – flush with catfish – and shot animals, leaving them dead on the roads.

Radiation and swallowing mercury are two of those things that don’t just go away after a brisk walk and a cup of hot tea with lemon.

Oh yes, another “Orc narrative” to start the day. I think this fairy tale have been more believable to neocons if the title were something more like “Russian Troops Suffer Radiation Sickness While Stealing Toilets from Chernobyl Exclusion Zone” And speaking of thick, wasn’t it the Ukrainians that blew up the reactor through negligence?

On the other hand, night fishing was much easier.

They went fishing about 100,000 years too soon. Could be the fate of most of the planet within a few years.
