Every country bordering Ukraine is at risk of fallout depending on where the wind is blowing. I hope it's been made clear to Russia behind the scenes the implications of destroying the plant.

Pretty sure those graphics are based on transposing Chernobyl to ZNPP - the chances of that happening in reality are incredibly slim unless Russia actually went to significant lengths to engineer it.

EDIT: I remember watching the live stream when they first attacked the plant - that was some surreal stuff at the time not knowing where it was going.

I think they clarified that an individual nation could if they chose say that radiation falling on them was an attack.

With the Article 5 being somewhat (very really) loose then it could give for example Poland enough reason to get involved, but calling article 5 would mean the rest of the NATO nations would need to come to their aid.
In modern politics that could be adding the Polish flag to the official government twitter account ;)

I notice the T14s are massing on trains.
To the untrained eye they look like T54/5s but they are using their stealth and tech, they are really T14s ;)

If Chernobyl (the event, not the TV series) proved anything, it's that nuclear power plants are not as dangerous as the public imagine them to be. The actual number of deaths was negligible and far lower than that predicted by American research after Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The benefits to nature have been greater than any loss, entirely down to the humans leaving.

Its still a radiated dead zone to this day, still a huge area off limits, it doesn't get much worse than that.
 
On the subject of ‘snuff’ videos, it’s all a rather pointless debate.

I saw a video recently of a guy getting effectively folded by the elevator he was stepping out of suddenly falling down. The video was on the NYTimes website so I figured it wouldn’t be graphic (and to some degree, it wasn’t) so figured it’d be safe to watch. Genuinely feel it’s left a mark on me since and I regret having watched it - and I am not a squimish person, or easily offended/upset. Since then, I actively choose to not search out watching stuff that I might not like.

However the reason that led me to watch it in the first place was morbid curiosity, and I genuinely get why people ‘want’ (not quite being the right word) to see footage from Ukraine. It’s a morbid curiosity and in lesser ways educating to actually be able to experience the barbarity of war without having to gain first hand experience.
