This is the first image captured of Chernobyl, taken 14 hours after the explosion on April 26, 1986.
The photo was snapped from a helicopter assessing radiation levels over the disaster area. The image is grainy due to the intense radiation in the air, which began damaging the camera film as soon as it was exposed.
Igor Kostin, the photographer, found that the radiation affected his camera's motors after about 20 photos. When he processed his films, only the image above was usable. All other photos, affected by high radiation levels, came out completely black.
Kostin's visit to Chernobyl was not legal or approved by the authorities. The incident's news was largely hidden. However, Kostin was later given permission to photograph the disaster site, the evacuation of residents in Pripyat, and the 30 km zone around the power plant. His images helped reveal the catastrophe to the world.
Despite his closeness to the site, Kostin did not receive deadly amounts of radiation. He died in a car crash in 2015 when he was 78.

தொடர் ஓட்டம்,வரலாற்றில் இல்லா போராட்டம், என பலரும் எனை சுட்டி பேசும்போது, மூப்படைந்த என் ரத்த ஓட்டமும் தேய்ந்துபோன என் எலும்புகளும் உயிர்வலியுடன் வேகமெடுக்கும். இப்போராட்டத்தின் முடிவு நீதியின் வெற்றியாகவேண்டும் என ஒற்றை இலக்கே காரணம்.

Stop tagging me with your lies and do some real work for a change....
Are you just a congenital liar, or really that low IQ, that you think anyone insults anyone in a GST council meeting...
Wait, wait. Don’t answer that. It’s a trick question....
You’re both!

March 12, 1993: Blasts occurred at 12 places in Mumbai
All 12 were Hindu-dominated areas
But, CM Sharad Pawar lied about 13th blast in Muslim-dominated area of Masjid Bunde
He blamed LTTE for blasts
Later, he justified his lies by saying that he did so to avoid communal riots
