The radiation level in Mariupol jumped 15.5 times. The danger zone is located on Peschany beach near the port.
“The level was 4.04 μSv/h with a safety level for humans of 0.26 μSv/h. That is, 15 times more than safe,” said Advisor to the Mayor of Mariupol Pyotr Andryushchenko in his Telegram channel.
He noted that local propagandists were quick to explain the increase in radiation levels as a storm and said it was safe.
“In fact, both statements are erroneous. Indeed, in the area of Peschany Beach there are so-called “black sands” that “radiate.” And indeed, the point level of radiation of these sands during normal life could only be harmful if you spend a lot of time here systematically. However, the true The reason for the high level and exposure of the sands is not the storm, but the Russian occupation. More precisely, bombing and rocket attacks on the city," the official said.
At the same time, he noted that such a situation with radiation is not only on Peschany Beach.
“If someone measured the level of radiation at Azovstal at the moment, and also made an analysis of the composition of the soil and dust carried by the wind throughout the city, and rain in the sea, the picture would become truly apocalyptic bright. That is why the Russians do not measure here, to hide the real ecocide,” Andryushchenko concluded.
