SCARY VIDEO: radioactive cloud could reach Budapest from Zaporizhzhia
The Ukrainian hydrometeorological institute showed in a frightening video how the radioactive contaminants would reach even East Hungary, including Budapest if a catastrophe happened in the Ukrainian nuclear power plant in Zaporizhzhia.
The video of the Ukrainian institute was retweeted by a Ukrainian journalist, Myroslava Petsa. She wrote that “in case a nuclear disaster at Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant occurred on Aug 15-18, this is how the released airborne radioactive contaminants would probably get dispersed”:

The nuclear power plant of Zaporizhzhia is Europe’s biggest one. The Russian forces occupied it in March. Shelling of the buildings started weeks ago, and the sides accuse each other. The Russians do not let professionals of the International Atomic Energy Agency assess the situation and threaten that they will shut the installation if the attacks do not end. Meanwhile, Ukrainians say that Russians use the facility as a military base because they know that opening fire on it would be risky.
KárpátHÃr says that Ukrainian experts concluded that the radioactive contaminants of the nuclear power plant would reach the Baltic Sea, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Belarus. If the cloud continued to the West, it would cover Moldova, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, the Czech Republic and even half of Hungary, including Budapest.
Interestingly, a Russian model is saying that it would not reach Hungary. However, they agree that the consequences would be similar to that of Chernobyl (1986) and Fukushima (2011).
Thousands of refugees come to Hungary each day
Fully 7,789 people crossed into Hungary directly from Ukraine on Thursday, while another 8,856 from Ukraine crossed from Romania, the national police headquarters (ORFK) said.
Police issued temporary residence permits valid for thirty days to 369 people, ORFK told MTI on Friday.
Holders of such permits must contact a local immigration office near their place of residence within thirty days to apply for permanent documents, it added.
Budapest received 247 people, 106 children among them, by train, ORFK said.

What next may I ask.
Saturday night we are going to see literally clouds of Chinese “after-smoke” from the “lavish” fire-works display, in Budapest.
All the lighting and “additions” to light the skies over Budapest – we will NEVER know – in the cloud formation, on Saturday evening – plus the STRONG possibility of rain – what is the Chinese cloud version and what could be radioactive cloud from Zaporizhzhia.
Scary stuff – but not an impossibility that just adds to – deepening questions of somewhat expanding un-certainty in Hungary – who knows what next could factually happen.
