In Seoul, said the risk of exposure of people living at the nuclear site of the DPRK

24
South Korean doctors discovered traces of radioactive effects on the body of DPRK defectors who lived near the Phungheri nuclear test site, according to News with reference to a representative of the Ministry of Unification of the Republic of Korea.



According to the official, “since October 2017, 30 studies have been carried out on former DPRK nationals who lived in Kilchu County near a nuclear test site”, where 2006 underground nuclear tests were carried out since 6.

Studies of chromosomes in four patients indicate changes characteristic of radiation exposure,
he said.

At the same time, the official noted that it is impossible to speak with complete confidence about radiation exposure, since a small number of people were examined, and changes in their organisms could be caused by age and smoking.

However, Seoul experts do not exclude the release of radioactive substances into the atmosphere after nuclear testing.

Recall, December 22 Kim Jong-un said that the DPRK "has become a strategic state capable of carrying an immediate US nuclear threat."

      Be that as it may, the South Koreans have no faith in the news about their northern neighbors.
      Yes, and the news itself: it may or may not be.

        And what about the spread of radiation from Japan, apparently, did not affect anyone?

      As everyone loves to monitor the health and well-being of people in other states, forgetting about the citizens of their country. Now, if you took care of your citizens and did not stick your nose to other countries, then it would be much calmer and better to live. This applies to absolutely all countries of the world.

    Well, why does everyone care not about their people, but about someone else’s, even their neighbor?

    30 former citizens of the DPRK

    witnesses to the studio!
    one cannot speak with full confidence about radiation exposure ...

    and you can say ... the more terrible it looks, the more terrible ... wink

    It is not yet known who has the most mutations - among North Koreans from their nuclear test site, or among South Koreans from American GMOs

    and the rockfall will start from the hollow, the northerners are to blame again? ..... let them see that the mattresses are supplied to them ... the oxidizer will flow from the patriot ... or the rash will appear on the pope ..... these are new solid fuel, like, in junk is a terrible thing ...

    Actually, this is natural. Any underground tests of a nuclear charge, and at any depth, entail the exit from the soil of two types of rays - alpha and beta, and there is no escape. It’s not so simple here, and a fracture of the crust also affects, excuse me, physicists — well, you all think that particles (three of them) are going in a straight line.

      Nuclear explosion products can surface through all possible cracks. These are all kinds of radioactive gases generated after the explosion.

        That's right - these are weak alpha particles (I’m just saying). But still, they do not know the reflecting structure of the rock (inclusions, etc.). I mean the material, which, like a mirror, can deflect the effects of particles, roughly gamma

            July 17, 1962, the explosion of "Little Feller I" of the Sunbeam operation. was the last explosion in the atmosphere at a nuclear test site in Nevada.

            Underground tests continued until September 23, 1992; explosions that do not reach critical mass continue to this day
            let's close for starters the Nevada training ground in the United States, it is not officially closed as Semipalatinsky, and operates by carrying out small-charge explosions, hushing up and not publicizing these facts ...

              I recalled the social movement in Kazakhstan, Nevada-Semipalatinsk, which cried out about the closure of the landfill, we closed it and they don’t - in fact, Anglo-Saxon demagogy and deceit, all politics is built on this, they have so "subtly" eliminated competitors for centuries - terry lies, bribery and deceit ....

              I would like to tell you and Sergey53 in detail, even for sure, even physicists cannot say * (half-decay of the element, into which parts it is divided - they tested it in laboratories), and the soil? - Do you think only pegmatites hold up the rays? I do not say - but there are elements beneath us that will not only miss the gamut, but we live - there’s a whole other spectrum.

    in a future war, the DPRK will not dare to use nuclear weapons, as the participants in the Second World War did not dare to use chemical weapons and the United States is well aware
