People near missile wreckage in northern Ukraine were warned to stay cautious after officials reported unsafe radiation readings. Ukraine’s SBU security service said debris from a Russian R-60 missile attached to a Shahed-136 drone was discovered in Kamka, Chernihiv, on April 7 with traces of uranium-235 and uranium-238. Investigators recorded gamma radiation at 12 microsieverts per hour and opened a war crimes case.
