Scenario of the event dedicated to the Chernobyl tragedy. Teacher Universities
"Trouble..
Chernobyl...
Human…"
The words are heard behind the scenes
The groan of the Earth.
Rotating in space, in captivity of its orbit,
Not a year, not two, but billions of years,
I'm so tired... My flesh is covered
Scars of wounds - there is no living place.
Steel torments my earthly body,
And poisons poison the waters of clean rivers,
All that I had and have,
A person considers his good.
I don't need rockets and shells
But my ore goes to them,
What does the state of Nevada cost me?
There are a series of underground explosions.
Why are people so afraid of each other?
Have you forgotten about the earth itself?
After all, I can die and stay
A charred grain of sand in the smoky haze.
Is it not because, burning with vengeance,
I rebel against the forces of madness,
And, shaking the Firmament with an earthquake,
I give an answer to all my grievances
And it’s no coincidence that the formidable volcanoes
I throw out the pain of the earth with lava...
Wake up, people!
Call on the countries
To save me from death.
And there was sun! And it was spring!
And I wanted to live! Oh, how I wanted to live!
Nature has risen from sleep,
And everything began to spin in a spring waltz.
And children's laughter spilled out from everywhere
A ringing song of future happiness!
He promised to bloom the earth forever!
In spring it’s so hard to believe in bad weather...
The music stops. Loud explosion... On the screen there is a video of the explosion, freeze frame.
The presenters and the reader slowly come out. The reader reads on the go.
READER 1: The earth and air are fraught with evil, -
Fruits and grains and flowers and herbs -
Death brings everything, poison exhausts everything,
Breath of destructive poison.
Chernobyl is an ominous star,
Invisible, like rock, burning above us.
In the anxiety and sadness of the city,
And fear numbs the villages.
PRESENTER 1: Good afternoon, dear friends!
Many springs have passed since then,
The twentieth century has ended
But the topic is not closed yet:
Trouble...
Chernobyl…
Human…
PRESENTER 2: : On April 26, 1986, the worst disaster in human history occurred. And 30 years later, this day makes us think about the possible consequences of human activity, about our unpayable debt to those who, risking their own lives, saved the world from a radioactive disaster. The memory of the tragedy will remain an unhealed wound in the soul of our people.
SPEAKER 1: The feat accomplished by the liquidators of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident will never be forgotten. It is sad to realize that every day these heroes are becoming fewer and fewer. We should all remember their feat.
PRESENTER 2: The measure of horror for us is war. Chernobyl is worse.
SPEAKER 1: This is a war with an invisible enemy. War without shooting and bullets.
PRESENTER 2: We want to tell you how it was...
READER2:
Second o'clock in the morning. Everything is quiet…
Suddenly there is an explosion and a burst of steam into the air...
And the sirens howled madly,
Death and life entered into the struggle.
The world shook. The news is broadcast.
It buzzes in different languages.
Not over Chernobyl, over the world,
Radiation fear hung over.
Pause. The presenter-readers remain on stage. The bell sounds in the background.
READER 3: The dull bell is ringing,
Slightly audible distant.
I listen, I cry and remain silent...
SPEAKER 1: 1 hour 23 minutes 40 seconds - 187 control and protection system rods entered the core to shut down the reactor. The chain reaction had to be broken. However, after 3 seconds, alarm signals were registered for exceeding the reactor power and increasing pressure. And after another 4 seconds - a dull explosion that shook the entire building. The emergency protection rods stopped before they were even halfway through.
READER4: A pillar of fire shot up into the sky.
And the explosion scattered the block block.
The earth froze in horror,
Raised on the rack by misfortune.
PRESENTER 2: From the roof of the fourth power unit, like from the mouth of a volcano, sparkling clumps began to fly out. They rose high up. It looked like fireworks. The clumps scattered into multi-colored sparks and fell in different places. A black fireball soared up, forming a cloud that stretched horizontally into a black cloud and went to the side, spreading death, disease and misfortune in the form of small, small drops.
PRESENTER 1: On the territory of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, people stepped over the wreckage; later, due to the high level of radiation, robots could not pass there: they “went crazy.”
SPEAKER 2: And at that time people were still working inside. There is no roof, part of the wall is destroyed... The lights went out, the phone went off. Floors are collapsing. The floor is shaking. The premises are filled with either steam, fog, or dust. Short circuit sparks flash. Radiation monitoring devices are off the charts. Hot radioactive water flows everywhere.
READER 5: Fire and darkness are an invisible enemy.
One step to death - then immortality.
No shootings, no attacks.
But to live only this way is at the cost of death.
On the screen, an electronic clock counts down the seconds.
SPEAKER 1: 1 hour 26 minutes 03 seconds - the fire alarm went off.
PRESENTER 2: 1 hour 28 minutes - the station duty guard arrived at the scene of the accident. After 7 minutes the Pripyat guard arrived.
READER6: The fight against the elements took place at an altitude of 27 to 72 meters, and inside the premises of the fourth power unit, the station personnel on duty were engaged in extinguishing. The firefighters did not know that the reactor had been opened.
PRESENTER 1: 2 hours 10 minutes - the fire on the roof of the turbine room was knocked down. After 20 minutes, the fire on the roof of the reactor compartment was suppressed.
SPEAKER 2: 4 hours 50 minutes - the fire is mostly contained.
PRESENTER 1: 6 hours 35 minutes - the fire has been extinguished.
PRESENTER 2: As a result of a nuclear accident, the largest catastrophe of our time occurred, resulting in numerous human casualties and radioactive contamination of the territory of Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia. The Chernobyl explosion released at least 130 million curies of a wide variety of radioactive substances into the environment, scattering them over an area of more than 56 thousand square kilometers.
READER7: Yes, a lot depends on people!
My planet hangs by a thread
A push - and there are neither adults nor children,
No snowy winters, no sunny summers...
PRESENTER 1: Every time has its own heroes. But this time people were faced with an enemy worse than plague, flood, earthquake, and even worse than an aggressor armed to the teeth. This enemy was imperceptible and invisible. He is cruel and cunning, ruthless and deadly.
SPEAKER 2: They did their job. But the situation was unusual - a reactor was “breathing” a deadly breath nearby. The fire spread across the roof of the turbine room. The terrible unbearable heat forced us to take off our respirators. The bitumen melted and flowed, filling the air with a disgusting, suffocating fume. The huge ceiling above the machine room and the auxiliary building fell with a crash. The molten coating burned through shoes, clothes, and burned the body.
SPEAKER 1: But there was no time to think about your safety. The station had to be saved. People were weakened by terrible smoke, unbearable heat, enormous doses of radiation, and pain. They lost strength and fell. But they survived! They saved the station, closed it with themselves and prevented an even greater disaster that could have happened. But this was only the beginning of the trouble.
PRESENTER 2: Volunteers were sent from all over the country, the former USSR, to eliminate the consequences of this accident. They washed away radioactive dust from vehicles with water, disinfected roofs and asphalt.
PRESENTER 1: Danger was in the air!.. The rescuers received a large dose of radiation. And this affected their health. The consequences were not long in coming. Many of the liquidators, as they are still called today, passed away, and many became disabled.
PRESENTER 2: It is impossible to imagine the depth of the consequences that the Chernobyl disaster could have brought if not for the courage and heroism of the people who took part in eliminating the consequences of the disaster.
READER8: Let us remember those who drove the cascades,
There were rafter panels on the roof.
Let's remember those who were on the cranes,
He loaded lead and transported concrete.
Presenter 2 Dedicated to the memory of the victims -
A minute of silence.
Fire Dance
Every day more and more liquidators are joining this list. We must not allow the memory of the heart to be cut short, so that descendants, having forgotten the past, will once again go down the path of mistakes! Remember Chernobyl! Don’t let a second Chernobyl happen again somewhere on Earth!
PRESENTER 1: 20 thousand citizens of the Oryol region took part in the liquidation of the accident. Among them are our fellow countrymen. on the 30th anniversary of the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, only 10 people remained:
PRESENTER 2: from the village. Long: Elbrus Hakobyan
Dmitry Vlasov
Nikolay Petukhov
Evgeniy Petrov
Nikolay Raspopov
Alexander Sukhinin
PRESENTER 1 from Krovtsova Plot: Nikolay Stepanov
Ivan Yagupov
Mikhail Zhivotov from K. Demyanovsky
Mikhail Doronin from the village. Nikolskoye
These people are strong in spirit, capable of great self-sacrifice. Almost all have orders and awards from the government, as well as medals “For saving the dead.” Praise to them, honor and glory!
Song to the Liquidators
PRESENTER 1: The accident caused large-scale radioactive contamination of the area not only in Ukraine, but also far beyond its borders. Radioactive contamination has been recorded in more than 30 countries around the world.
PRESENTER 2: One of the most important tasks in eliminating the consequences of the accident was isolating the destroyed reactor and preventing the release of radioactive substances into the environment. The first stage of her solution was the construction of a shelter, which was called a sarcophagus.
READER9: Turning away from the red forest,
Radiating anxiety and fear,
In the center of the zone above the Chernobyl nuclear power plant wound
The sarcophagus, gray as an elephant, froze.
PRESENTER 1: The height of the “sarcophagus” was 61 meters, the greatest thickness of the walls was 18 meters. According to the safety characteristics, the sarcophagus is designed to last only 20-30 years and is gradually destroyed.
SPEAKER 2: Work is currently underway on the construction of a new shelter over the Arch object. It is designed for 100 years of safe operation.
PRESENTER 1: For work in the area of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, armored vehicles with increased protection from radiation were used, but this practically did not help. After a week of use, they had to be buried in burial grounds, since the metal began to literally “glow” from radiation. The largest such cemetery is located in the village of Rassokha, 25 km from the nuclear power plant.
READER 10: Forgotten well, guardian of a deserted village,
An unmown, gray, aging meadow under the sun.
And the dome in the distance is golden, the holy monastery,
And the empty city suddenly appears in front of him.
And strange people, dressed out of season,
And everything you see around is called a zone.
SPEAKER 2: A complete evacuation of residents was carried out from a zone with a radius of 30 km from the exploded reactor.
PRESENTER 1: On the outskirts of the city of Khoiniki there is a monument to the villages lost as a result of the Chernobyl disaster. A sculpture of a grieving woman against the background of a semicircular wall with the names of dead villages of the Khoiniki region. There are 21 settlements on the wall. These are only relatively large non-residential villages - there are many more small ones...
READER11: Everything stopped and froze suddenly,
There was a terrible groan from Chernobyl.
Forgotten villages have stood since then,
Looking at life through window openings.
PRESENTER 2: Chernobyl. Now the whole world knows this word. We still feel the consequences of this tragedy. Mutations in contaminated areas, the birth of children with congenital pathologies, cancer and leukemia. It's very scary! The enemy is invisible and he does not sleep!
PRESENTER 1: The thirty-kilometer zone remains uninhabited. Because not only people suffered, but also nature - meadows, fields, forests, birds and animals. Everything that used to please the eye and benefit man has become dangerous for him.
PRESENTER 2: The Chernobyl zone has been erased from life for 500, and maybe even a thousand years, no one knows what and when science will be able to do to bring it back to life.
READER 12: Pripyat has become a dead city,
You won't find more people there.
Tragedy fear is still alive there,
And it won't affect history.
The houses are empty, no conversations can be heard,
There are no trains going there anymore.
And the disputes about that grief do not subside,
The star over the station of happiness went out.
We will mourn the unfortunate victims,
Let us remember the heroes of Chernobyl years.
Years go by, about the tragedies of the past
That painful trail is still fresh.
The grief echoed from Chernobyl,
And innocent people suffered.
Those who were in a quarrel were instantly reconciled
But the outcome was merciless for everyone
PRESENTER 1: Today, among the many tons of abandoned equipment that cannot be decontaminated and therefore cannot even be melted down, wild boars roam, feral herds of horses gallop, and giant heads of mutant catfish emerge from the pond of the former reactor cooler.
PRESENTER 2: It’s sad, but the fate of the zone is determined: it is destined to become a burial place for liquid and solid nuclear waste...Ukraine...Europe.
READER13: There is a sacred custom of the Slavs:
Leave your land to your descendants.
I am a traitor to my land
My garden is dying.
He caresses his gaze with the sated weight of apples,
It's not easy to come to terms with death.
We are rooted in this land,
We alienate ourselves from it through fear.
Even the enemy failed to take our land,
How can we escape from it now?
I put a crown of thorns on her
This dead Chernobyl zone.
PRESENTER 2: Just as in Japan a crane in the hands of a child became a symbol of peace, so Chernobyl had a symbol, it became the Chernobyl stork.

5. “Chernobyl Stork” (clip of the same name)
PRESENTER 1: After Chernobyl, nuclear energy suffered a severe blow, but our science, our designers and planners began to try to make nuclear energy safer.
According to scientists, society will come to the conclusion that it is necessary to develop nuclear energy as the safest and cheapest way to supply electricity. Progress cannot be stopped! In Russia, the future lies in nuclear energy!
PRESENTER 2: And we hope that built according to all the rules and with an understanding of all the responsibility that lies on the shoulders of adult husbands, scientists, designers, builders and workers of modern nuclear power plants, our houses will always be filled with light, warmth and children's laughter, and Nature and people, and therefore our globe, will not be threatened.
It doesn't matter who presses the button first,
And the poor planet has a charred mouth,
He shouts: “What are you people doing to me?
Understand, earthlings, you are in a bond!
You will fly together to thermonuclear hell.
I close my eyes - the oceans are boiling.
It's time for now! But time does not wait.
Today the ice has broken on Pripyat.
Chernobyl, Chernobyl - universal pain!
Fight for blind souls.
Didn't you cover me with yourself?
And the West is your terrible lesson
Will not understand?
PRESENTER 2: Our program is ending, we told you about the events that happened 30 years ago and we hope that such a tragedy will never happen again!
PRESENTER 1: People, be vigilant! Don't let all life on Earth perish!
Chernobyl is a memory for many centuries.
Chernobyl is an inconsolable grief for widows.
Chernobyl is the current nuclear age.
Chernobyl - here a man became a hostage.
Chernobyl is death covered with a sarcophagus.
Chernobyl - no one and nothing is forgotten here.
Dear friends, we say goodbye to you. Goodbye, see you again
Literary and musical composition “Bells of Memory”

Ved.1
April 1986. There are no signs of trouble. Gardens are blooming wildly on the fertile Ukrainian soil, adults and children are enjoying the warmth and sun, people are preparing for the celebration of May 1st. ( slide 1 )
Ved.2 People meet, people fall in love, get married...
(On the stage there is a group of participants in Ukrainian folk costumes: the Ukrainian song “Bring Galya Voda” is played and a dance composition is performed).
Projection without sound
The sound of an explosion and siren sounds. People are worried...
On the screen is a projection of the explosion at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Soldiers in protective suits and gas masks run in.
Bell ringing.
1 reader
Chernobyl! What a word
The sound of thunder in the distance...
An irreparable misfortune
For many you have become on Earth.
Who would have thought?
Peaceful atom
It can do so much harm...
A fountain of violent radiation
Rush up and into the fields...
There are gardens and arable fields for hundreds of miles,
And small towns
A stain of deadly radiation
Now covered forever.
Ved. 2 Let's remember how it was ...(Slides are projected on the screen )
The Chernobyl nuclear power plant is located on the territory of Ukraine, which was part of the USSR, on the banks of the Pripyat River, which flows into the Dnieper.
2 reader
By the beginning of the 90s, there were 417 nuclear reactors in the world and 120 were still under construction. Nuclear power plants provide people with the energy they need. The reactors are installed on icebreakers, satellites, and submarines. Nuclear energy has firmly entered our lives with its pros and cons.
3 reader
« April 26, 1986 at 1:24 a.m. Moscow time, humanity has entered a new era of its development. At these moments, history was divided into two eras: "before Chernobyl" and "after».
4 reader
As a result of a scientific production experiment, the fourth power unit of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant exploded, which led to the complete destruction of the nuclear reactor, cooling systems and the reactor hall building itself.
5 reader
The fourth reactor - it shook devilishly with a roar.
Freeze peoples. Goodbye friends and family.
Who stepped into the inferno like a pillbox, leaning on an atom,
He really wanted the Earth to breathe freely.
Whoever stepped into the inferno did not think about death and glory
He thought about life, about life and only about it.
Therefore, cherries bloom in the inspired State
And the children play under the sunny canopy of days.
You bitterly covered your head with a black scarf,
But you survived this monstrous battle.
I am your blood brother, Ukraine lean on me.
I give you everything I have at this hour.
The silence is oppressive, the springs look forlornly,
Deserted fields - this is all in reality, not a dream.
Fourth reactor, holy fearless faces
We bow to them who protected us, living and dead!
6 reader Reinforced concrete and metal structures, graphite blocks and their pieces were thrown onto the roof of the turbine hall and onto the territory of the nuclear power plant. A column of combustion products rose from the mouth of the reactor. Of the 190 tons of nuclear fuel, 90% entered the Earth's atmosphere. The largest catastrophe in the world in terms of its scale and consequences occurred.
Ved. 2 The Chernobyl bell struck. He was heard by residents of Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, people all over the planet . (Song “Stork on the Roof”)
7 reader
Before the morning,
The silence is split,
To that ominous explosion
I ran into myself in the dark.
And she went to destroy everything,
Hot porridge
Great judgment to be carried out
Above our carelessness.
Everything flew up:
Floors, blocks.
And the fire danced
On a destroyed block.
Sirens are already wailing along the roads.
They fly right into their forehead
Invisible - X-rays . (Dance with scarves, "")
Ved. 1
A significant part of the territory was exposed to radiation. In the area of the fourth block, instruments showed a lethal dose of radiation.
The firemen of the city of Pripyat took the first, most terrible blow. They extinguished the fire in the area of heaviest radiation - above the reactor.
Ved.2
And 30 years later, the Chernobyl tragedy claimed the lives of tens of thousands of people. (Slides). There would have been fewer victims of the Chernobyl tragedy if people in those days had been told the bitter but truth. The USSR government hid information about the accident for a long time. People did not know that it was forbidden to be in an infected area, in the open air, much less sunbathe, swim, or fish. And only 36 hours later, residents began to be evacuated. Cities and villages remained empty. Cities are ghosts.
8 reader.
Near Pripyat there stands a dead tree - a cross,
The red forest was buried from dawn to dusk,
Only the cross was preserved for the descendants of the Earth.
From the eye sockets of dead windows the city looks at us,
Distant Hiroshima, a sea of crying eyes.
How many thousands - I don’t know - left their homes,
Life without a homeland and childhood is torment without words.
Next to the mass grave and the exploding Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
Near Pripyat there is a dead tree - a cross.
Bow down to those who died and disappeared,
The tree asks for a memory, the tree asks for a cross.
Ved. 1
The result of the Chernobyl tragedy is sad: 11 regions of Belarus, Russia, and Ukraine, home to 17 million people, of which two and a half million are children under five years of age, were exposed to radioactive contamination to one degree or another.
9 reader
Half the sky at night the cloud swirled
And emitted its cruel light,
Lord forbid that this happens again
And even after a hundred thousand years.
Don't let the evil, terrible forces break in
To our cities, and on our way
Through the lands, through the forests and dear rivers
Pass through an insidious fiery death!
It’s as if the ancient lands had opened up,
To interrupt life not for hours - forever.
Forests burned, birds and animals died
And the man ran away from hell.
The entire planet was at risk
Become dead - black, not blue!..
Lord forbid that this happens again.
Save the world you created! (Song "2")
Ved. 2 The events at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant worried everyone. The first liquidators - soldiers of the conscript civil defense service and volunteers - were sent to the scene of the accident. People of different ages, different specialties.
10 – 11 readers. Poem. "Knowing no fear"
Watch the video “Minute of Silence.” A minute of silence is announced.
Ved. 2
We want to light candles for every year.
To pass on the memory as a baton.
We all know that time heals.
We have no right to forget about Chernobyl victims...
(30 candles are brought onto the stage, the music “Ave Maria” plays)
12 reader
Many years have passed
And many are not with us...
They were kind, alive...
They left, burning like spring flowers,
Remained young forever.
The living need to laugh and love,
Working on yourself, suppressing the disease is a pain!
And not to live out your life, but to live.
And life is not easy, but by and large.
Ved.2
30 years have passed since the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. The memory of those events continues to live in songs, poems and anthems created by the Chernobyl liquidators.
(The video “Anthem of the Chernobyl victims” is projected onto the screen)
Ved.2 Children grew up without fathers, grandchildren are growing up, knowing their grandfathers only from photographs, widows cried tears.
13 reader
When death is on the parade ground of defeat
The last parade will welcome the fallen -
Even after victorious battles
The pain of loss always remains.
The hard times will pass away harshly, and in the mournful silence over everything
A heavy word - a bitter widow -
It will go echoing around the country.
Times are difficult. Dashing is enough
Everyone. But it’s a hundred times harder for you,
For in sleepless nights it never stops
There is an April alarm in our souls.
Once again it hurts my heart with black pain.
Loneliness of thought aches.
And about him, alone, forever with love
The memory keeps bright fidelity. (Love song)
Group of readers
While the planet is still alive,
While the spring dreams of the sun,
Let's claim our rights to life,
The earth is like a heart in our chest,
Here is our sky and our nests...
It's not too late to save her
It's not too late, it's not too late!
The atom is getting angrier and more terrible,
The horror of terrible explosions is getting closer,
There are not many nights and days yet -
And it will be too late before it’s too late! ...
Will the seas really freeze tomorrow?
Will the birds fall silent, will the pines fall asleep?
The dawn will no longer be able to rise,
And the sky will ask: “Is it too late?”
So let's swear that we will save
And this sky is filled with starry hopes,
Let's save the planet - our good home,
Before it's too late, before it's too late! (Song "4")
Ved.1
We, now living on this Earth, clearly understand how fragile the peace on the planet is.
The Chernobyl disaster will forever remain in our memory as a warning to humanity.
Video screensaver.
Musical accompaniment.
Leading. It was a warm April night, one of the best nights of the year, when leaves suddenly appear on the trees like a green mist. The city of Pripyat slept, Ukraine slept, the whole country slept, not yet knowing about the enormous misfortune that had come to our land.
A terrible misfortune reigns
Above the watery chill and the earth's firmament,
Chernobyl wormwood star
It poisoned everything, permeated it with death.
The musical accompaniment immediately transitions into the plot dance “Fate” performed by a modern plastic ensemble.
A quarter of a century has already passed since that terrible night. It seems that details and details have been forgotten. It doesn't seem so scary anymore. Meanwhile, there are people among us, though there are fewer and fewer of them every year, for whom the word "Chernobyl" not something abstract and blurry, but real pain. True story. Black color.
Documentary film (4-5 minutes) about the Chernobyl tragedy.
Leading. Today our meeting is dedicated to the memory of those who, a quarter of a century ago, without sparing their lives, took part in eliminating the consequences of the largest man-made disaster of the 20th century - the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
Chernobyl is a dark reality in our history. Unfortunately, man-made disasters are a sad reality of our time.
The explosion at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant had very serious consequences. It was necessary to carry out large evacuation measures and attract a significant number of forces to eliminate the consequences of the radiation disaster.
Let us remember and bow to those who took the first radiation hits, who gave their lives while participating in the elimination of the most terrible disaster of the 20th century.
A minute of memory and a minute of silence are announced.
A minute of silence.
Remember!
Through the centuries, through the years -
Remember
About those who will never come again,
Remember.
Sending your song into flight,
Remember
About those who will never sing again,
Please remember.
The pop song studio performs “There is only a moment” (music by L. Zatsepin, lyrics by L. Derbenev).
Leading. In the first days after the accident, not knowing the real situation, station workers, firefighters, and military personnel who came to help fought against the elements. And we will never tire of thanking these brave people.
The catastrophes occurring in the world are comparable to wars, which, unfortunately, do not occur without casualties. But they also have their own heroes. We honor them today.
Children present the liquidators with memorable gifts and flowers.
The soloist performs the song “The Earth is Empty Without You” (Anna German’s repertoire).
History has preserved for us the memories of those who, at the cost of their lives, eliminated the consequences of the disaster and hastily evacuated people from their native land. It is difficult to imagine all the grief of those who said goodbye forever to the house where they were born and raised, to their native outskirts, to the land on which they lived their whole lives.
The soloist performs the song “Bells” (music by G. Starkov, lyrics by L. Dubinskaya).
Catastrophe, like war, spares no one. She doesn't choose what gender, age or nationality you are. Chernobyl is not a disaster for one specific nation, but a universal disaster.
Ethnic block performed by a vocal ensemble.
Russian song "Verila".
Ukrainian song "Oh, May, May."
Belarusian song “Oh, u luzi, pry darozi.”
Leading. In the five years since the disaster, more than 600 thousand liquidators and more than a million people were involved in various rescue operations in a 30-kilometer zone around the station and the city.
One of the liquidators, Anatoly Podlesny, recalls: “Specialists worked everywhere: military, firefighters, engineers, builders, physicists and doctors. I arrived in the disaster area along with other volunteers by bus; From the window I saw all the chaos that was going on there - there were ruins everywhere. Every day everyone worked until they were completely exhausted and slept only four hours a day.”
Another memory is from Gennady Galkin: “The first object was the city of Pripyat: yellowed pine trees, deserted streets. My feet refused to step on this ground. It seemed that even the air here was poisoned. We washed buildings, highways, asphalt. They removed the top layer of earth, which was then buried... And after two hours the wind blew up a new cloud of dust, which again infected the streets, houses, roads... Everything had to be done anew. And so - day after day."
The plot dance “Save our souls” performed by a modern plastic ensemble.
Leading. Here's what the military remembers:
“The horror of the silence of the villages ringing in my ears. When we were being taken to the unit, we passed several villages where houses were boarded up and the population was taken out. And since we were traveling in winter, black fruits that had not been harvested in summer hung on the trees. The embodied dead zone.
We were standing in one of the villages in the Ivankovsky district - this is in a thirty-kilometer zone. Every day at five in the morning we get up, line up in a column and leave. They worked at the station itself, cutting down the “red” forest. The forest turned red in the summer, but then hands did not reach it; first it was necessary to build a sarcophagus over the reactor. In winter, the forest began to be cut down, sawed and buried.”
The soloist performs the song “Why are the birches making such noise in Russia” (repertoire of the Lyube group).
Leading. Remembering those days, the liquidators all, as one, agree, perhaps, on the main thing: on the one hand, there was an anxious state, because no one knew what it was, and on the other hand, there was composure and readiness to carry out the task. This is heroism, which gave life to the next generation and gives hope to the modern age. After all, no matter what difficulties our people had to face, they always coped with them with dignity and courage.
The vocal duet performs the song “Nadezhda” (music by A. Pakhmutova, lyrics by S. Grebennikov and N. Dobronravov).
Leading. The Chernobyl explosion occurred in the center of Europe. There is no doubt that with Chernobyl a new starting point began in the relations of people to each other. We all now understand perfectly well that we live in the same house on planet Earth. And everyone must learn to feel not just Russian, English or American, but a citizen of the world. And if the residents of the zone are “hostages of Chernobyl,” then we are all hostages of more than 400 nuclear power plants in the world. This must be remembered: after all, those who do not know their past have no future. We say thank you again.
Final dance of the modern ensemble.

Decor. There is twilight on the stage and in the hall. There is a splash screen on the screen.
The ringing of bells is quiet at first, then louder.
A girl in a black dress and a candle in her hand reads a prayer on stage
God! Bless and save!
In your name is my hope.
Take the repentance of sinners,
And forgive me, as you forgave us before...
The ringing of bells fades away. The light turns on.
Teacher . Today our event is dedicated to the 30th anniversary
disaster at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
Presenter 1. People became acquainted with the phenomena of radioactivity relatively recently, just over 100 years ago, in 1896-1898, Pierre and Marie Curie were able to explain the property of uranium to emit radioactive rays that penetrate everywhere. Since then, people have been intensively studying the phenomenon of radioactivity and trying to apply it in practice.
Presenter 2. Modern technologies that use the phenomenon of radioactivity are primarily nuclear weapons and nuclear energy, as well as new systems for processing raw materials and waste. The widespread introduction of radioactive elements into various fields of science, technology, and medicine.
Teacher. Energy is the basis of world civilization.
The first type of energy mastered by man was the energy of fire. The fire made it possible to heat the home and cook food. and also use the energy of fire to make tools for hunting and attacking other groups of people, that is, for “military” purposes. 1
One of the main sources of energy in the modern world is the energy of combustion of petroleum products, natural gas or coal. The next breakthrough in the development of energy occurred after the discovery of the phenomenon of electricity. Currently, electric power is the foundation of everything without which it is impossible to imagine modern civilization.
Nuclear energy is of great importance for modern life, since the cost of one kilowatt of electricity generated by a nuclear reactor is several times less than when generating a kilowatt of electricity from hydrocarbons or coal. With the help of the peaceful atom, powerful submarines and surface ships with nuclear power plants are built, radioactive isotopes are widely used in biology, agriculture, medicine, and in space exploration.
The history of mastering atomic energy began in 1939, when the fission reaction of uranium was discovered.
In 1946, the first nuclear reactor on the European-Asian continent was built and launched in Russia. A uranium mining industry is being created.
In 1954, the world's first nuclear power plant began operating in Obninsk, and 3 years later the world's first nuclear-powered ship, the icebreaker Lenin, entered the ocean.
Today, atomic energy is widely used in many sectors of the economy. There are 9 nuclear power plants (NPP) in Russia. More than 4 million people live within the 30-kilometer zone of these nuclear power plants.
In case of trouble-free operation, nuclear power plants produce virtually no environmental pollution other than thermal pollution. At the same time, when developing nuclear energy in the interests of the economy, we must not forget about the safety and health of people, since mistakes can lead to catastrophic consequences.
In total, since the start of operation of nuclear power plants in 14 countries around the world, more than 150 incidents and accidents of varying degrees of complexity have occurred. The most typical of them: in 1957 - in Windscale (England), in 1959 - in Santa Susanna (USA), in 1961 - in Idaho Falls (USA), in 1979 - at the Tri nuclear power plant -Mile Island (USA), in 1986 - at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant (USSR).
Presenter 1. Chernobyl is a small cute Ukrainian place, surrounded by greenery. The word "chernobyl" in Ukrainian means "wormwood". Ancient Chernobyl gave its name to a powerful nuclear power plant, the construction of which began in 1973.
Presenter 2. The Chernobyl nuclear power plant is located in Ukraine, near the city of Pripyat, 18 km from the city of Chernobyl, 16 km from the border with Belarus and 110 km from Kyiv.
A modern city was built nearby for the station workers, which, like the river, was named Pripyat. This is a city of nuclear scientists.
The city was founded on February 4, 1970. The number as of November 1985 was 47 thousand 500 people. Average age 25 years.
As the presenters read, a film about the construction of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant is shown on the screen.
Presenter 1.
On the shore of the sandy Pripyat river,
Among the pines, catchment and sedges 
The hulls rose proudly -
No, not an ordinary plant.
And our century is progress.
The emblem of peace of all peoples.
Where the waters flow quietly,
The Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant burst into song!
Presenter 2. Here in the huge generators,
Not simplified - tamed,
By the mind and will of all scientists,
Turbines are asking for uranium.
The presenters leave at the end of the film. Cheerful music sounds, a reader comes on stage and young men and women walk around the stage to the accompaniment of his poems. They have flowers and balloons in their hands.
Reader 1. The world is so beautiful! Herbs and flowers,
The murmur of a stream, the smell of strawberries...
And there was sun! And it was spring!
And I wanted to live! Oh, how I wanted to live!
Nature has risen from sleep,
And everything began to spin in a spring waltz.
And children's laughter spilled out from everywhere -
A ringing song of future happiness!
He promised to bloom the earth forever!
In spring it’s so hard to believe in misfortune...
The music stops. Loud explosion. The light goes out. Boys and girls feign fear, some fall onto the stage. There is a video of the explosion on the screen, a freeze frame.
The earth and air are fraught with evil,
Fruits and grains and flowers and herbs -
Death brings everything, poison exhausts everything,
Breath of destructive poison.
Chernobyl is an ominous star,
Invisible, like rock, burning above us.
In the anxiety and sadness of the city,
And fear numbs the villages.
Music sounds, boys and girls come on stage and dance the dance “White and Black, BEFORE and AFTER”
A slide or photo of the 4th block of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant after the accident appears on the screen, and organ music sounds.
Teacher. April 26, 1986, Saturday. At 1 hour 23 minutes 40 seconds, an accident occurred at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, dividing the history of the Earth and humanity into “BEFORE and AFTER”. 3
Presenter 3. (boy)
Second o'clock in the morning. Everything is quiet…
Suddenly there is an explosion and a burst of steam into the air...
And the sirens howled madly,
Death and life entered into the struggle.
A pillar of fire shot up into the sky,
And the explosion scattered the block block.
The Earth froze in horror,
Raised on the rack by misfortune.
The world shook. The news is broadcast
It buzzes in different languages.
Not over Chernobyl, over the world,
Radiation fear hung over.
A film or slides of the accident are shown on the screen.
Teacher. On the night of April 25-26, 1986, an uncontrolled uranium fission reaction began in the reactor of the 4th block of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, and the reactor went into overdrive. The temperature of the uranium fuel rods rose to several thousand degrees, and the water cooling them instantly turned into steam. There was an explosion.
He tore, like rotten threads, two thousand steel and zirconium pipes and communications, and “shot” the top floor slab into the air. This colossus weighing 1.5 thousand tons hovered over the torn reactor, slowly turned and with its entire mass fell edge-on onto the central hall and onto the remains of the reactor.
Fragments of uranium rods, pipes and pieces of graphite splashed in different directions, heated to a thousand degrees, from combining with oxygen in the air, flared up like a sparkler and fell onto the roof of the neighboring turbine hall, covered with roofing material.
The reactor of the 4th block of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant released 50 tons of evaporated radioactive fuel into the atmosphere. This radioactive fallout fell mainly in European countries, but especially in large areas of Belarus, the Russian Federation and Ukraine. As a result, the air, soil, water, vegetation and animals were contaminated, and many people received a strong dose of radiation - for many it turned out to be fatal.
An electronic clock counts down time on the screen:
Presenter 3.
1 hour 23 minutes 40 seconds nuclear reactor explosion;
1 hour 26 minutes 03 seconds – the fire alarm went off;
1 hour 28 minutes – the station’s fire guard on duty arrived at the scene of the explosion;
1 hour 35 minutes – the fire guard of the city of Pripyat arrived at the station;
2 hours 10 minutes – the fire on the roof of the turbine room was knocked down;
2 hours 30 minutes – the fire on the roof of the reactor compartment was extinguished;
4 hours 50 minutes – the fire is mostly localized;
6 hours 35 minutes the fire was extinguished.
Teacher. The fire stations, which are called “Rank No. 1,” were the first to arrive at the scene of the fire.
Falling into the melting quagmire of roofing material burning through boots, exposed to the monstrous force of radiation, inhaling radiation aerosols, six firefighters of Rank No. 1 entered into a mortal battle.
These men gave their lives, knocking out the flames at night, preventing the fire from spreading to the neighboring blocks of the station. It’s scary to even imagine what would have happened if they had not done that night, everything that is possible and not even possible for a person. They obscured not only their neighbors, but those far away. Each of us.
Eternal memory to them...
The presenters take the stage, and photographs of the station's firefighters are displayed on the screen.
The presenters call their names, and music plays (live violin performance) 
Presenter 1. Hero of the USSR Lieutenant Vladimir Pavlovich Pravik.
Presenter2. Hero of the USSR Lieutenant Viktor Nikolaevich Kibenok.
Presenter 3. Sergeant Nikolai Vasilievich Vashchuk.
Presenter 1. Sergeant Vladimir Ivanovich Tishura.
Presenter 2. Senior Sergeant Nikolai Ivanovich Titenok.
Presenter 3. Senior Sergeant Vasily Ivanovich Ignatenko.
Teacher. They did their job at the cost of their lives. But this was only the beginning of a terrible disaster called the Chernobyl disaster.
Presenter 1. Volunteers were sent from all over the country, the former USSR, to eliminate the consequences of this accident. During 1986-1987 Containing the spread of radioactive fallout and cleaning it up involved 350 thousand workers, or “liquidators,” from among the military, nuclear power plant workers, local police and fire services. Subsequently, the number of registered liquidators increased to 600 thousand people.
Presenter 2. The liquidators worked in an area of high radiation, regardless of the risk to health. They washed away radioactive dust from vehicles with water and disinfected the roofs of houses and asphalts.
Presenter 3. The largest doses of radiation were received by about 240 thousand liquidators during work to reduce the consequences of the accident within a 30-kilometer zone around the reactor. Of these, about 100 thousand became disabled,
More than 50 thousand people died.
Teacher. Feats:
Lieutenant Vladimir Pravik, who with his fire brigade was the first to arrive at the scene of the disaster and extinguished the roof of the reactor hall;
Ambulance doctor Viktor Belokon, who provided first aid to the irradiated;
Physics engineer Alexander Sitnikov, who looked into the reactor nozzle itself and reported that the reactor was destroyed;
V. Perevozchikov, shift supervisor of the reactor workshop, who saved people;
P. Shabanov - an Afghan soldier, a helicopter pilot who participated in overflights of the reactor in the most dangerous zone;
And many, many, many others - these are examples of not only the heroic behavior of people in a critical situation, but also examples of morality and the purity of the human soul. 5
Presenter 2. It is impossible to imagine the depth of consequences that the Chernobyl disaster could have brought if not for the courage and heroism of thousands of people who took part in eliminating the consequences of the disaster.
A girl in a black dress goes on stage
Let us remember those who drove the cascades, 
There were rafter panels on the roof.
Let's remember those who were on the cranes,
He loaded lead and transported concrete.
A terrible life lesson
Someone else's pain came to life.
Let's all be silent for a bit...
Let's keep quiet, you and I...
Teacher. 30 years have passed since the Chernobyl disaster, and most of those who are called liquidators, alas, are no longer alive. Designers and soldiers, firefighters and doctors, physicists and helicopter pilots, drivers and miners, and just volunteers. By saving the lives of others, they exposed their own to mortal danger. Not everyone knew or understood the extent of this danger.
Let us honor the memory of the fallen with a minute of silence. I ask everyone to stand up.
The metronome turns on.
Teacher. I ask everyone to sit down.
Presenter 1. On Saturday and Sunday, April 26 and 27, 1986, residents of Pripyat, the city of power engineers of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, rested, as expected, after another week of work: children played in the sandboxes, young people went out of town, fished in the river, played football, celebrated weddings . Life was in full swing.
The smoke above the 4th power unit did not cause any concern to anyone. People had not yet been told anything, and therefore none of them knew that all of them had already been sentenced by the logic of previous events to become participants and victims of a hitherto unprecedented nuclear tragedy.
Presenter 2. After assessing the scale of radioactive contamination, it became clear that the evacuation of the city of Pripyat would be required, which was carried out on April 27.
In the first days after the accident, the population of the 10-kilometer zone was evacuated. In the following days, the population of other settlements within a 30-kilometer zone was evacuated.
In the spring and summer of 1986, 116,000 people were evacuated from the areas surrounding the Chernobyl reactor to uncontaminated areas. In subsequent years, another 230,000 people were resettled.
A column of buses is projected on the screen.
Presenter 2. Imagine a column of 1 thousand 100 buses, with their headlights on, walking along the highway and leading the many thousands of population of the city of Pripyat out of the affected area.
Teacher. People were hastily “uprooted” from their native land. It is difficult to imagine the grief of those who said goodbye forever to their homeland, to the house where they were born and raised, to the land with which their whole life is connected, their relatives and friends are buried.
Presenter 1. Evacuation and relocation were deeply traumatic for many people due to the disruption of social ties and the inability to return to their homes. People were silent, many were in shock. There were almost no tears. Only the pain and anxiety were frozen in the eyes.
Presenter 2. The once flourishing cities of Chernobyl and Pripyat, and with them numerous Ukrainian and Belarusian villages and villages, are deserted...
Wolfgang Mozart's "Requiem" is playing.
A girl in a black dress goes on stage
Dead city…
Ghost town
The sky is crying above you...
Behind the everyday prism
Someone's pain is dying.
You can't hear other people's moans
And the sobs are not heard...
Millions suffered
Even though there was no war.
Was cruel and invisible
Destroyed peace -
Technological shot in the back
Among human joy.
This hell will remind many
A lot about yourself...
Through grief - to God's feet
And to prayer about fate.
On the screen are slides of the sarcophagus above the reactor.
Presenter 3. In order to finally stop the removal of radioactivity from the damaged power unit, it was decided to build a concrete shelter over it - the Sarcophagus. All radioactive debris scattered throughout the territory of the nuclear power plant and on the roof of the turbine room were removed inside the sarcophagus or concreted. Construction of the sarcophagus was completed in November 1986.
Presenter 1. After the accident at the 4th power unit, the operation of the power plant was suspended due to the dangerous radiation situation. However, already in October 1986, after extensive work to decontaminate the territory and build a “sarcophagus”, the 1st and 2nd power units were put back into operation; in December 1987, the work of the 3rd was resumed.
In 1991, a fire broke out at the 2nd power unit, and in October of the same year the reactor was completely decommissioned. On December 15, 2000, the reactor of the last, 3rd power unit was shut down forever.
Teacher. Today, the city of Chernobyl is almost no different from any other regional center. In total, about 4,000 people live in it at the same time. These are shift workers who work for two weeks, and the Ministry of Emergency Situations shift. The city is quite lively - cars pass through the streets every now and then, and there are quite a few people, although compared to an ordinary city, it is, of course, deserted here. The main feature of Chernobyl is that you will not meet children here.
It is a mistake to assume that everyone you meet can end up in Chernobyl. This is a closed territory, entry into which is permitted only after preliminary submission of an application and its approval.
The city of Pripyat remained empty and abandoned.
Presenter 3. We, the inhabitants of this planet, must not forget about terrible wars, natural disasters, and major accidents that claim hundreds and thousands of lives, pollute the environment and make it unsuitable for further exploitation.
Presenter 1. The most important lesson of Chernobyl is an even more heightened sense of the fragility of human life, its vulnerability. Chernobyl demonstrated the omnipotence and powerlessness of man. And he warned: do not revel in your power, man, do not joke with nature.
Presenter 2. Look more closely and responsibly at yourself and at what you have created. For you are the cause, but also the effect. Considering that a person changes generations every 20 years, humanity will need 800 years to recover.
A girl in a black dress goes on stage
Chernobyl…
This sounds scary...
The soul grows cold and it’s terrible to remember
Those days when the world was shocked by the news...
That a radiation disaster has begun.
We are inhabitants of the fragile planet Earth
We want it to bloom.
We don't need black spots on it
And they must treat it with care.
Teacher. We, children of the Earth,
must understand that it is not
The globe belongs to us
and we belong to him.
And we need to pass on clean, healthy food to future generations.
and a happy planet.
This is our house! This is your home!
Presenter: 25 years ago, on April 26, 1986, at approximately 1:24 a.m., an explosion occurred at the 4th power unit of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, which completely destroyed the reactor. As a result of the accident, radioactive substances were released into the environment, including isotopes of uranium, plutonium, iodine, etc.
The Chernobyl nuclear power plant is located on the territory of Ukraine near the city of Pripyat, 18 kilometers from the city of Chernobyl, 16 kilometers from the border with Belarus and 110 kilometers from Kyiv.
Let us consider the line dedicated to the memory of the victims of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant open.
Dedicated to the memory of the victims of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
(Montage - About Chernobyl...)
1.Twenty-sixth of April
The whole country was sleeping peacefully.
Atom went crazy
He rushed up into the sky
And the war began with him. (Vladimirov Zhenya)
2. People played with death
And without sparing the belly
They fulfilled their duty and shortened their lives.
This was the reality. (Andrey Mikhailov)
3. Many died in agony,
Much still suffers
Many are waiting for their fate,
But no one will remember them.
Well, thank you for that.
What do you do to our hearts?
Chernobyl victims, live longer.
Health and joy to you. (Demchuk Alexander)
Presenter: Guys, I invite you to get acquainted with some of the events that took place on that distant terrible morning of April 26, 1986. So, the first message will be made by Victoria Chernyshova.
First message: Chronology of events
On April 25, 1986, a shutdown of the 4th power unit of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant was planned for the next scheduled maintenance. During such shutdowns, various equipment tests are usually carried out according to separate programs. These were already the fourth regime tests carried out at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. The first attempt in 1982 was not entirely successful; subsequent tests, carried out in 1983, 1984 and 1985, also ended unsuccessfully for various reasons.
However, during almost the entire duration of the experiment, the power behavior did not give rise to concern.
At 1:23 a.m., an emergency protection signal was registered. In the next few seconds, the systems failed.
According to various testimonies, there were from one to several powerful impacts (most witnesses indicated two powerful explosions) 1:25 the reactor was completely destroyed.
Presenter: “I’M GOING THE CHERNOBYL ROAD AGAIN”
Galina Pletnikova is reading.
Who among us could forget ourselves in silence?
Whoever's heart hasn't trembled with anxiety,
When the cold wind at night
A whiff of black reality from Chernobyl?!
That night, rows of Kyiv chestnuts,
Barely sticking out its inflorescences in the foliage,
Under the falling cloud of trouble
We thought about the town on Pripyat.
Kyiv has never known anything like this,
Marked by centuries of scars with dates.
An unexpected disaster broke out,
Mysteriously accumulated in the atom.
Presenter: The second report on the causes of the accident will be made by Anna Kramicheva.
Causes of the accident and investigation
The State Commission formed in the USSR to investigate the causes of the disaster placed primary responsibility for the disaster on the operating personnel and management of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. An advisory group was created to investigate the causes of the accident. In its 1986 report, it was stated that the accident was the result of an unlikely coincidence of a number of violations of rules and regulations by operating personnel; the accident acquired catastrophic consequences due to the fact that the reactor was brought into an unregulated state.
However, in 1991, the USSR State Atomic Supervision Commission re-examined this issue and came to the conclusion that “the Chernobyl accident, which began due to the actions of operational personnel, acquired catastrophic proportions inadequate to them due to the unsatisfactory design of the reactor.” In addition, the commission analyzed the regulatory documents in force at the time of the accident and did not confirm some of the accusations previously leveled against the station personnel.
The reactor did not meet safety standards;
. low quality of operating regulations in terms of safety;
. ineffectiveness of the regulatory and safety oversight regime in nuclear energy;
. there was no effective exchange of safety information both between operators and between operators and designers;
. the personnel made a number of mistakes and violated existing instructions and the testing program.
Presenter: Svetlana Chizhikova reads a poem about Chernobyl.
Chernobyl... One word is enough -
And my heart is like a painful lump,
It will shrink, waiting for new news,
And the breeze smells of bitter dust.
And pain did not fall from the stars of heaven,
And not on the firmament of insensitive stones -
And it penetrated into the chest of the earth with an evil fuse
And treacherously settled in her.
Presenter: Third message about the consequences of the accident.
Sarina Elizoveta will read
Consequences of the accident
Directly during the explosion at the fourth power unit, only one person died (Valery Khodemchuk), another died in the morning from his injuries (Vladimir Shashenok). Subsequently, 134 Chernobyl nuclear power plant employees and rescue team members who were at the plant during the explosion developed radiation sickness, and 28 of them died over the next few months.
At 1:24 a.m., a signal about a fire was received at the control panel of the HRC-2 duty officer for the protection of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. The duty guard of the fire department left for the station. The guard of the 6th city fire department left Pripyat to help. Lieutenant Pravik took over the leadership of extinguishing the fire. His competent actions prevented the spread of the fire. Additional reinforcements were called from Kyiv and surrounding areas. The firefighters had only canvas overalls, mittens, and a helmet as protective equipment. By 4 o'clock in the morning the fire was localized on the roof of the turbine room, and by 6 o'clock in the morning it was extinguished. In total, 69 personnel and 14 pieces of equipment took part in extinguishing the fire. The presence of a high level of radiation was reliably established only by 3:30, since of the two available devices for 1000 roentgens per hour, one was out of order, and the other was inaccessible due to the rubble that had arisen. Therefore, in the first hours of the accident, the real levels of radiation in the premises of the block and around it were unknown. The state of the reactor was also unclear.
In the first hours after the accident, many apparently did not realize how badly damaged the reactor was, so the mistaken decision was made to supply water to the reactor core to cool it. This required work in areas with high radiation. These efforts were useless, as both the pipelines and the core itself were destroyed. Other actions of the station personnel, such as extinguishing fires in the station premises and measures aimed at preventing a possible explosion, on the contrary, were necessary. They may have prevented even more serious consequences. While performing this work, many station employees received large doses of radiation, some even fatal.
Presenter: Another poem about Chernobyl is read by Katerina Fedoseeva
The sun's disk fell below the horizon,
The night spilled its ink,
The light of death is as elusive as a dream,
A blanket of death covered us.
Yellowed forest and yellow sign -
It's not worth going to the side of the road,
May Day burnt out flag.
Maybe they'll write us down as heroes.
Pears and apples are ripening in the garden,
To fall into the rising weeds,
Beauty, but you feel trouble,
And locks, locks on all the doors.
The hum of engines through the copacs,
Here it is, here is the final turn.
Ahead the fire burns in the night...
Who's alive? Nobody will understand.
Nothing can change now,
There are no seconds for a short smoke break,
We will be able to tame the atom -
It's a pity that there is a lot of grief forever.
What is twenty-five roentgen?
What is strontium, cesium, iodine?
We will find out all this later,
And now the order is to go forward!
Information and evacuation of the population
Presenter: These are the terrible events that unfolded 25 years ago at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. But the first official announcement was made on television on April 27. In a rather dry message, the fact of the accident and two deaths were reported; the true scale of the disaster began to be reported later.
After assessing the scale of radioactive contamination, it became clear that the evacuation of the city of Pripyat would be required, which was carried out on April 27. In the first days after the accident, the population of the 10-kilometer zone was evacuated. In the following days, the population of other settlements within the 30-kilometer zone was evacuated. It was forbidden to take things with you; many were evacuated in home clothes. To avoid fanning panic, it was reported that the evacuees would return home in three days. Pets were not allowed.
To coordinate the work, republican commissions were also created in the Byelorussian, Ukrainian SSR and in the RSFSR, various departmental commissions and headquarters. Specialists sent to carry out work on and around the emergency unit, as well as military units, both regular and made up of urgently called up reservists, began to arrive in the 30-kilometer zone around the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. The bulk of the work was carried out in 1986-1987, involving approximately 240,000 people. The total number of liquidators (including subsequent years) was approximately 600,000.
“Account 904” was opened in all savings banks in the country for donations from citizens, which received 520 million rubles in six months. Among the donors was Alla Pugacheva, who gave a charity concert at the Olympic Stadium and a solo concert in Chernobyl for liquidators.
As a result of the accident, about 5 million hectares of land were withdrawn from agricultural use.
A 30-kilometer exclusion zone was created around the nuclear power plant, hundreds of small settlements were destroyed and buried (buried with heavy equipment).
More than 200,000 km² were polluted - this is approximately 70% in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine. Radioactive substances spread in the form of aerosols, which gradually settled on the surface of the earth.
The highest doses were received by approximately 1,000 people who were near the reactor at the time of the explosion and who took part in emergency work in the first days after it. These doses ranged from 2 to 20 grays (Gy) and were fatal in some cases.
In many cases, radiation sickness was complicated by radiation skin burns caused by β-radiation. During 1986, 28 people died from radiation sickness. Two more people died during the accident for reasons unrelated to radiation. During 1987–2004, another 19 people died.
Observation of a large group of liquidators conducted in Russia revealed an increase in mortality by several percent. Among the 600,000 people exposed to the highest doses of radiation, the mortality rate from cancer is approximately four thousand.
Various public organizations report very high rates of congenital abnormalities and high infant mortality in contaminated areas.
Some of the most heavily contaminated areas in Belarus and Ukraine have seen an increase in mortality.
Liquidators and residents of contaminated areas are at increased risk of various diseases, such as radiation sickness, oncology, cataracts, cardiovascular diseases, decreased immunity, Down syndrome in children, etc.
Dear teachers and children, you need to know and remember this.
I propose to honor with a minute of silence all those who died from the disaster at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
