Yesterday evening russian propaganda started spreading fake news about the rise of radiation on the sensor in Khmelnytskyi. We've checked these measurements and on nearby sensors – all the values do not exceed the natural levels. The radiation situation in Ukraine is normal.

We’ve just added one more radiation data source to our system: website of – daily measurements on industrial sites of Ukrainian NPPs. Still no online data but more transparency about the radiation situation in Ukraine. And, yes, there is data from Zaporizhzhia NPP.

Piece by piece, byte by byte, we are collecting daily confirmations of war crimes of russians against the Ukrainian environment.

Yes, sensor caught emissions from the fire on the destroyed building by russian missile. Based on the public sources in the media, we can see the location of building, wind is blowing in exact direction of @lun_ua sensor – one more war crime against Ukrainians and environment.

New online data source of gamma radiation in our system is now available. Five sensors were installed many years ago by the local authority in Pokrov of the Dnipropetrovsk region, just 40 km from Zaporizhzhia NPP: more data – clearer picture of the radiation situation in Ukraine.

Fascinating news. We’ve restored the access to the radiation data from the sensors installed in the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone. The data is provided by the Ecozagroza system of . Radiation levels are within typical values for this area. saveecobot.com/en/radiation-m

♥ We donated the second batch of Automated Ionising Radiation Monitors to be deployed in Ukraine.
☢️ 15 new radiation sensors are being installed by in multiple areas across the country to offer real time measurements of the radiation levels.

Kherson is Ukraine! We are working on the delivery and installment of the background radiation sensor there to monitor the situation online because no fresh information yet available.
Glory to Armed Forces of Ukraine 🇺🇦

All the data in my system is public data. And it is essential to keep it as open as possible. My developer gave a short explanation at . PS. A small part of information we are taking from public sources that are not easy to find. But we are providing everything publicly.

After five days, monitoring of the background radiation at the Chornobyl NPP started working again. Radiation levels are within typical values for this area.

The radiation situation in Ukraine is normal.
But the situation with the official monitoring is not great. Three days ago stopped working update of the measurements on Chornobyl NPP website, the data is shown, but it’s not changing. What’s the reason? Nobody knows.

And the last, the funniest news: the data from the Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plant automated radiation monitoring system appeared again on the website. Why is it funny? Because all websites of NPPs in Ukraine are not working. But that one accidentally became online.

But there are also good news.
Main Center of Special Monitoring of State Space Agency of Ukraine () started publishing background radiation data again! All the archives are also available. That’s six sensors around Ukraine, with the measurements every three hours.

Dr. Charles Casto: "Data from private radiation-monitoring networks nearby ZNPP, such as SaveEcoBot and others, should be made public. All these sources should be consulted to boost detection capabilities."

The Zaporizhia nuclear power plant is a “strategic military and political asset that Russia can exploit to its advantage”, warns Charles Casto. He explains what must be done to avoid “dire consequences” econ.st/3cNEDBF

Kyiv is under heavy pressure of dirty air from the burning peat. If you are in Kyiv or around it, then try to stay inside, drink more water, use air purifiers, and if you still have to be outside wear masks like N95. #AirQuality

The radiation situation in Crimea is normal. These measurements are done using the temporarily occupied equipment in Ukrainian Crimea by occupiers. We found where to take the data on their website, showing it as Ukrainian data. #CrimeaIsUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState

Iryna Chernysh, head of our NGO, gave comments for a great article about environmental issues in wartime in Ukraine, and of course, she mentioned our radiation map and other features. Must have in the reading list.

Thank you so much to @Sara_Talpos and all the other editors at @undarkmag for their work since early March to report and edit down this story. I'll be thanking the interviewees, most of whom aren't on twitter, separately but it has been a big effort from lots of people twitter.com/Sara_Talpos/st…

A fresh new data is coming, old data, but it maybe very interesting for researchers. We will soon create an option to download all these archives for anyone in CSV format.

Just finished importing more than 1.6 million background radiation measurement points to the @SaveEcoBot from the sensors installed near Ukrainian nuclear power plants and in the #Chornobyl Exclusion Zone. Some measurements are from the 2014! Huge field for research. #OpenData

Since yesterday, station located directly at the #Chernobyl power plant began to report radiation data again. Reported values are high, but typical for the area.
Radiation levels in #Ukraine stay normal.

In addition to the radiation background, our system collects air quality data in Ukraine. In times of war, this information is worth its weight in gold because it helps to record war crimes

Unfortunately, the website is no longer working from 9:09 AM Kyiv time :( Dear please restore these websites, there is no any security issue if they will work. PS. Thanks the monitoring tool for the free access, we are able to track performance.

We’ve just found that the Khmelnytskyi Nuclear Power Plant website started working again yesterday near 2:30 PM Kyiv time. And now, our system again has a radiation background from 11 online stations in the 30 km zone around KhNPP. Measurement frequency every 3-5 minutes.

. you must open the background radiation measurements from Ukrainian NPPs for everyone. Why is it hidden? RT plz.

Why that data is not available for Ukrainian citizens? Why is it hidden from us? We must know what’s going on there! Please open it to us. The last time NPPs published data is 10:00 AM, March 4, 2022. @SaveEcoBot

Není třeba se děsit. Čestvé údaje z monitorovacích sond neukazují zvýšení radiace v blízkosti Záporožské elektrárny. Nemáme zatím jak ověřit zprávy o výbuších údajně provedených okupanty v areálu. Budeme to sledovat ze všech zdrojů.

Because of military actions of russian occupiers, Chernobyl nuclear power plant was fully disconnected from power grid. The nuclear station has no power supply. Military actions are in progress, so there is no possibility to restore the lines. Slavutich city is also blackout.

Let me remind you that the official reason for the excesses: “In this consideration the estimated reason of the indicated increasing of the dose rate could be the partial disturbance of the upper ground level due to the movement of significant amount of heavy military machines.”

The station is installed next to the Intermediate storage of spent nuclear fuel "dry" type (SVYaP). On February 25, 2022, there was an excess of the expected level more than 34 times. This monitoring station did not work, as well as 24 more, which had excesses.

Yesterday at 2:40 PM (Kyiv time) suddenly 41 background radiation measuring stations in Chernobyl Exclusion Zone started working. Subset of them – 14 stations where there were excesses are working and not showing excesses, like that installed in Nova Krasnytsia. #Chernobyl 🧵
