Default Russian wildfires reach Chernobyl zone

Just when you thought the wildfires couldn't get any worse, now its reached areas affected by the Chernobyl disaster.

From the report; "Environmental groups, including Greenpeace, have warned that radioactive particles which settled into the soil after the 1986 disaster could be thrown up into the air once again by wildfires and blown into other areas by the wind."
