Foreign AffairsRussian Forces Leaving Chernobyl Nuclear Site Hit By Radiation Sickness: Reports by Asura(op): 4:08pm On Mar 31, 2022
Russian forces leaving Chernobyl nuclear site hit by radiation sickness: Reports

Disclaimer: A number of claims and counterclaims are being made on the Ukraine-Russia conflict on the ground and online. While WION takes utmost care to accurately report this developing news story, we cannot independently verify the authenticity of all statements, photos and videos.


Dozens of Russian forces leaving the besieged Chernobyl nuclear power facility have been infected with radiation sickness and are being admitted across the border to a special facility in Belarus, several reports have claimed.

On Wednesday, a senior US defence official claimed that the Russia forces have been pulling out of the defunct nuclear facility in Ukraine after seizing control of the facility on February 24, reports AFP.

However, an employee at the Public Council at the State Agency of Ukraine for Exclusion Zone Management claimed that they were “running away irradiated”, reports UK-based tabloid newspaper The Sun.

He alleged that they were being transported by bus to a special radiation medical centre in Gomel to help treat their radioactive poisoning.

In a post on Facebook on Wednesday, Yaroslav Yemelianenko said, “Another batch of radiation irradiation of Russian terrorists who captured the Chernobyl zone, was brought to the Belarusian centre of radiation medicine in Gomel today.”

According to UNIAN news agency, Russian troops allegedly dug trenches in the highly toxic Red Forest zone, which might have been the cause of their radiation sickness.

“Have you dug trenches in the Red Forest? Now live with it for the rest of your short life. There are rules for dealing with this area. They are mandatory because radiation is physics – it works without regard to status or shoulder straps. With minimal intelligence in command or soldiers, these consequences could have been avoided,” Yemelianenko said.

Staff at the site earlier said that the invading troops have been sent on a “suicide” mission, added that their vehicles and equipment had no anti-radiation protection.

Speaking to Reuters, one worker on duty, when the Russians seized control of the area, said the convoy had kicked up clouds of radioactive dust while driving through the highly toxic ‘Red Forest’, which got its name when dozens of square kilometres of pine trees turned red after absorbing radiation from the 1986 explosion.

Foreign AffairsUS Announces New Sanctions On Chinese Officials Over 'repressive Acts' by Asura(op): 6:19pm On Mar 22, 2022
US announces new sanctions on Chinese officials over 'repressive acts'


The Department of State announced on Monday it would sanction some Chinese officials over what it called "repressive acts" against members of ethnic and religious groups, including those in the U.S.

"The United States rejects efforts by PRC officials to harass, intimidate, surveil, and abduct members of ethnic and religious minority groups, including those who seek safety abroad, and U.S. citizens, who speak out on behalf of these vulnerable populations," the department said in a statement, referring to China by its formal name, the People's Republic of China. "We are committed to defending human rights around the world and will continue to use all diplomatic and economic measures to promote accountability."

The State Department said it would impose visa restrictions on Chinese officials it said are believed to be responsible for "policies or actions aimed at repressing religious and spiritual practitioners, members of ethnic minority groups, dissidents, human rights defenders, journalists, labor organizers, civil society organizers, and peaceful protestors in China and beyond."

The department called on China to "cease its acts of transnational repression" that includes silencing Uyghur American activists and other Uyghur individuals "serving the American people by denying exit permission to their family members in China."




"We will continue to work with the international community to promote accountability for PRC officials responsible for atrocities and human rights violations and abuses wherever they occur, including within China, the United States, and elsewhere around the world," the department added.

The State Department did not name any specific individuals in its statement. A spokesman for the department said, "Under U.S. law, individual visa records are confidential and we cannot provide details as to who is or will be affected."

As much as the US needs saudi oil, they have plenty. Have u heard of fracking? Go and google it and see how much oil US get as reserves, even UK sef
You're missing the point. The US doesn't need Saudi oil, rather they need the Saudi's to keep selling their oil in dollar. That's what gives the dollar advantage over other currencies hence the term petrodollar.

Foreign AffairsRe: Russia Is Not Withdrawing From Ukraine But Building Up Troops - US, NATO by Asura: 5:57pm On Feb 16, 2022
InoGetJoy:
Russia never had any plans of invading Ukraine UNLESS Ukraine joins NATO.

US keeps saying Russia wants to invade, and they keep giving dates but those dates come and nothing happens and they choose another date.

There has always been soldiers at the Russian/Ukrainian border, which is normal for every country.

Russia fears no sanctions. The west has been slapping Russia with sanctions for eons but Russia has been surviving. Right now, any further sanctions against Russia is a waste of time; Russia already had trade partnership with many European countries all the way to Germany for their gas, and China for military alliance.

Ukraine and Russia are genetically same people. They have same language, same customs. This dichotomy you people are seeing between Russia and Ukraine, the people in these countries don't actually see it.

I hope you know about the Cuban missile crisis? The exact same thing the US has been bitching about is what led to that crisis, except that in this case Ukraine is right on Russian border while Cuba is a distance from the US mainland.


Lastly, I would advise you get your news and info from neutral news agencies. My eyes opened when I stopped getting news from CNN, BBC, fox news etc. Funny enough, these 3 news agencies are owned by the same company.

Have you ever wondered why the Russians are always portrayed as the enemy in Hollywood movies? I'll leave you to do that research for yourself.
Shalom
You've said it all.

Contrary to your comment most international carriers want to operate into Nigeria. Nigerian route is very profitable as we pay a lot to travel compared to other African countries. This is partly because we have no flag/national carrier and thus almost every foreign carrier operates as a monopoly on the Nigerian route as the BASA’s with Nigeria are one sided .
I get the picture and i understand what you're saying.

When someone doesn't say what you like, you tag the person as working for the government.
I'm very sure you will as well make it a tribal issue.
Your problem plenty. Be mature next time when presenting an argument. Don't start by throwing insult's like an uncultured child.

Akudaisi:
now let's be reasonable for once,how can you say we should take this pandemic serious when there is no pandemic here in the first place
Wow. First of covid is real. And when i said pandemic, i meant what's happening all over the world and not just Nigeria. So unfortunate hate has made you unintelligent.

Akudaisi:
once you acknowledge the fact that the pandemic is not our problem the better for the masses unless you are benefiting from the livescores released by NCDC you could be one of them,get sense
Nigeria has many problems and covid is not just a Nigerian problem but a world problem... You could see the effect of covid and there isn't a country that hasn't been affected directly or indirectly. Learn how to argue intelligently without insults!

Lol. So because i chose not to attack the system and the government, I'm not well?
I chose to respond to the topic as it was and not what wasn't relevant to this topic.
Whether ncdc releases fake figures or not is irrelevant to this topic!

Nigerians should start taking this pandemic seriously.

Air peace should be able to do rapid testing, the only problem would be increased travel fees for the passengers. But i guess its kinda like a blessing for Air peace, giving that most international airlines will not want to fly Nigerians, leaving them with no option but to fly air peace.

How he was allowed to get on that plane without getting his test results is baffling.

Science/TechnologyTelegram Now Lets You Import Your Whatsapp Chats by Asura(op): 5:03pm On Jan 29, 2021
Whatsapp users who are moving to Telegram can now bring their chat history – including videos and documents – to the new platform.

Published on January 29, 2021 By Janet John

Telegram is introducing the ability to import your chat history from other apps including WhatsApp. This means that you won’t lose past conversations from your Whatsapp.

Over 100 million users have joined Telegram in January since Whatsapp made an update to its privacy policy.

With this new feature, everyone can bring their chat history from both individual chats and groups – including videos and documents – to Telegram from WhatsApp.

By Clever Advertising
This feature is available on both Android and IOS. You can import your chats as long as you have an account on both WhatsApp and Telegram.

For users jumping ship from WhatsApp to Telegram, being able to take their chat histories with them means one fewer barrier to switching.

How to move your chat from Whatsapp to Telegram
To move a chat from WhatsApp on iOS, open the Contact Info or Group Info page in WhatsApp, then tap Export Chat, then choose Telegram in the Share menu.

Meanwhile, on Android, to export chats on WhatsApp, on mobile, click on the three dots at the top right of a chat (for both individual and group), tap ‘More’, then ‘Export chat’, and follow the prompt to choose the destination.

This feature allows you to send all conversations in the chat with or without media.

Any messages imported into chats have a small “Imported” label on them noting when they were originally sent, and when they were brought into Telegram, and messages are visible to all chat participants.

Imported messages appear in the order in which they are imported, rather than in the order they were originally sent.
