Consequences of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant disasterEdit
During the elimination of the consequences of the Chernobyl disaster, as of 2010, residents of 141 settlements in the Mogilev region were evacuated, and 88 settlements were buried. In the post-accident period, more than 21,500 people were resettled to clean areas of the republic, leading to a decrease in the region 's population by about 7%. The most contaminated areas are the Bykhaw, Kastsyukovichy, Krasnapollye, Slawharad, and Cherykaw districts; these areas are contaminated not only with cesium-137, the main dose-forming nuclide, but also with strontium-90. In 14 districts of the Mogilev region, 11,200 km² of territory became radioactively contaminated: Byalynichy, Babruysk, Bykhaw, Kirov, Klimavichy, Klichaw, Kastsyukovichy, Krasnapollye, Krychaw, Krugloe, Mogilev, Slawharad, Chavusy, and Cherykaw district, which accounts for 38.6% of the total area of the region. At the beginning of 2010, nearly 119,500 people lived in 778 settlements in areas of radioactive contamination.<ref>https://libmogilev.by/chernobyl/mogilev_region.html</ref>
