Radioactive cylinder airdropped in Nyasvіzh District
A mushroomer walking near the village of Alba in Nyasvіzh District encountered a strange thing. He saw a metallic cylinder (20 cm long and 8 cm wide) with a sign warning about the danger of radiation and an inscription “Radiation”.
The man informed the police about it. Policemen and employees of the Emergency Control Ministry arrived from Nyasvіzh. That part of the forest was encircled. The cylinder spent two more days in the forest before the investigation ended.
Then a special group arrived and took the cylinder to a special nuclear-waste disposal place. Now the police are trying to find out who brought the cylinder there. According to the preliminary version, it must have been airdropped.
