Ukrainian forces steeling themselves for combat with Russian troops are using the site of a previous Russian atrocity inflicted on their country to train for urban warfare, Reuters reports. This marks the first real fuctional use of the town of Pripyat, once home to 50,000 Ukrainians, now permanently evacuated since the April 1986 meltdown of a shitty, unsafe, Russian-designed nuclear reactor that exploded during an engineering test. “This was a battle with irregular militias in (an) urban environment,” an unnamed soldier told a reporter. Not great, not terrible.
