A large wildfire is spreading through the Chernobyl exclusion zone, Ukrainian authorities said. The effort is being hampered by hidden landmines, which authorities say were left by the Russians following the 2022 invasion. They also shared a video showing a firefighter rescuing a moose calf, which is an endangered species. Reactor 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant exploded in 1986, leaving the area as one of the most radioactive places on the planet.
