No radioactive clouds on the way to Europe, no alarms and no emergencies. Poland is responsible for calming down and reacting to the (probably false) information spread by the head of the Russian Security Council, Nikolai Patrushev. “We have not received any radioactive emergency notifications,” the Polish nuclear agency wrote on its website, stating that it is “in constant contact with the International Atomic Energy Agency and the Ukrainian Nuclear Regulatory Agency (Snriu)” and has access to “the International Radiation Emergency Early Notification System.” (USIE)”.
Radioactive cloud, the alarm from Moscow
But what happened? According to Moscow, according to Patrushev’s voice, quoted by the RIA Novosti agency, there is an ammunition depot in thedepleted uranium The ship sent from the west would have been destroyed by a Russian bombardment and as a result a “radioactive cloud” would have formed moving towards Europe. According to Patrushev, an increase in radioactive levels has already been detected in Poland. Patrushev does not say where the bombing took place, but in recent days Telegram channels have been circulating images of a Russian attack that took place on May 13 in the Khmelnitsky region west of Kiev, causing a huge black cloud in the form of a mushroom cloud. The hypothesis that depleted uranium munitions could have exploded was also discussed in various Russian media. According to the Moscow Defense Ministry, there have been increased Russian bombing raids on NATO countries’ weapons depots in Ukraine in recent days with the aim of blocking the announced counter-offensive in Kiev.

Poland guarantees: “No emergency in Europe”
However, the reality would be very different. After the “false information about the radiation danger in Poland”, the agency declares that “the situation in the country is normal”: the peak values observed in the last few days in Poland, but also in the rest of Europe, are not unusual. and “check regularly” if it’s raining. In addition, the Ukrainian government has denied Moscow’s concerns. “Based on the results of the measurements, it can be stated that there is no reason to worry about an increase in the radiation background in the Khmelnytsky region,” the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine was quoted as saying, according to Ukrinform.
The measurements
“Measurements of the radiation background were made with the “Terra Mks-05” dosimeter-radiometer during the day at 9 points evenly distributed over the city. The values obtained range from 0.12 to 0.15 μSv/h, which corresponds to long-term indicators for the Khmelnytskyi city area and does not exceed the norm (0.3 μSv/h). Based on the results of the measurements, it can be stated that there is no reason to worry about an increase in the radiation background in the Khmelnytskyi region,” write experts from the Khmelnytskyi University.
Tricarico: blatant fake news
“The only reason that can justify a radioactive cloud in Ukraine is the use of a nuclear weapon by the Russians. So it’s probably fake news of ever-greater proportions or, in fact, a qualitative leap in the use of weapons of mass destruction.” General Leonardo Tricarico, former Air Force chief of staff and current president of the ICSA Foundation, said Adnkronos after Moscow raised the alarm about a radioactive cloud in towards Europe and the agency’s subsequent rejection of the Polish nuclear bomb. “It is likely, however,” emphasizes Tricarico, “that the Russians have once again fired massively, as if there were not in the meantime countless scientific studies, even if they were necessary, which certify beyond a doubt that depleted uranium armament releases no harmful radioactivity.” In this case, the only potential hazard is inhaling the dust that is released immediately after impact when hitting a hard, metallic surface. An unlikely possibility, only in theory or almost. In addition, the powders consist of microparticles and not nanoparticles and are therefore not able to penetrate into the cells of human tissues; to hurt yourself you have to inhale them; Therefore, it is virtually impossible for such an eventuality to occur. “The ICSA Foundation – adds General Tricarico – will shortly publish the list of the most important scientific studies on the subject, above all exclusively by third parties or institutions, for the benefit of those who want to know more and to reassure those who do I still have my doubts about the controversies on this subject, also thanks to Russian exploitation, which have still not finally settled.
