On 26 April 1986, a design flaw detected during a safety test at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in northern Ukraine caused an explosion and fire that devastated the town of Pripyat and the surrounding area. An initial evacuation was ordered, evacuating around 116,000 people, and a 30-kilometre exclusion zone was set up by the military.
A few years later, unofficial explorers known as stalkers came across lorries entering the exclusion zone on the pretext of recovering trees killed in forest fires. The truth is that healthy pine trees are being felled in large numbers and sold all over Europe.
