has gloss | eng: The Kyshtym disaster was a radiation contamination disaster that occurred on 29 September 1957 in Mayak, a nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in Russia (then a part of the Soviet Union). It measured as a Level 6 disaster on the International Nuclear Event Scale, making it the second most serious nuclear accident ever recorded (after the Chernobyl disaster). The event occurred in the town of Ozyorsk, a closed city in the USSR built around Mayak. Since Ozyorsk/Mayak (also known as Chelyabinsk-40 and Chelyabinsk-65) were not marked on maps, the disaster was named for Kyshtym, the nearest known town. |
