Pre-War Chernobyl Factory

Continuous depressing news coming out of Ukraine.  Not that Russia is making much progress (that’s the good news), but more along the lines of more and more people getting hurt, killed and displaced.  So needless. 

Here are a few photos from the Jupiter Factory in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.    

Chernobyl

I don’t know what to say about the war in Ukraine.  It is so frustrating to know people, historical sites, houses, etc.. are getting injured, damaged or worse because of one person’s greed and evil intent.

These are photos from Chernobyl (pre-war).

Old Soviet Facilities in Ukraine

Here are a few more photos from my Ukraine trip (pre-war).  All of these were taken near the Chernobyl Nuclear Reactor and within the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. 

I hope the Ukraine military and people can keep on giving the Russian military a good fight and that they stay safe.
