The explosion released radioactive material, causing immediate deaths and long-term health issues. Nearby cities were evacuated too late, exposing many to radiation. The disaster's impact spread across Europe, with estimates of thousands of deaths. Chernobyl remains a stark reminder of the risks of nuclear energy.
