Chernobyl
The Chernobyl disaster had wide-reaching impacts, with radiation spreading over a 30km radius. The inhabitants of Chernobyl and Pripyat were evacuated to cities like Kiev and Zhytomyr.

Ars comes in two types, the first type being mild Ars. Mild Ars symptoms are vomiting, diarrhea, headaches, and rapid heartbeat. Mild Ars symptoms can go away from a few hours to a few days. The second type of Ars is severe Ars. Severe Ars comes in three stages prodromal, latent, and overt. The only dangerous stage is Overt. when someone hits the overt stage, they are most likely to die or end up in a coma. The FDA has approved drugs that are highly effective at removing radioactive elements from the body. The damage is irreversible. Ars is just when you are exposed to radiation in a short amount of time. Ars does not give you cancer the radiation mutates your cells and changes your DNA that is what causes cancer cells

The possibility of severe health effects depends on the age of the baby at the time of exposure and the amount of radiation it is exposed to. Unborn babies are less sensitive during some stages of pregnancy than others.
There is not enough information on the matter of how radiation exposure can affect babies. Some information is closed and hidden from the public.
Disclaimer not enough information on the topic.

Radiation from Chernobyl is still getting cleaned up and is estimated to be finish in 2065. They have built a shell to prevent radiation spreading any farther while they clean up

After the Chernobyl accident, nuclear waste got into the soil of forest and agricultural areas. Plants that grew there were contaminated. The forest near Chernobyl was affected so much that the trees turned red. They say it will be around 20,000 years until the forest and Chernobyl can be inhabited by humans. Workers had to bulldoze and bury the radioactive trees. Squads of Soviets were also were ordered to shoot any stray animals in the 1000-square-mile Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. The Soviets thought that because the animals were also exposed to the radiation they might hurt or spread radiation to people trying to evacuate the area.

The reason the trees turned red is that they died due to the extreme amounts of radiation, they absorbed during the Chernobyl fire and explosion. The forest is still in the recovering stages. The forest is currently going through Secondary Succession it will take time but the forest still has its soil so the forest will come back with the help of pioneer organisms. The animals in the forest are thriving even in a radioactive environment. The environment is more like how it used to be before it was inhabited by humans. The animals did not come back with similar numbers. The animals came back with twice the numbers they had before the explosion. The reason the animals are doing so well in the environment is because without human interference the animals have been able to multiply by having babies. Their ecosystems also started to finally balance out. The only thing that really concerns scientists is the genetic mutations in plants and animals because of the radiation. The genetic mutations in the animals could hurt them or even worse. The scientist still has to run more tests to find more information on the matter.

Chernobyl greatly affected waters all over the Northern Hemisphere. The Pripyat River and Dnieper river were both affected by radioactive contamination from the blast. By far the water the most heavily affected by Chernobyl was the water near the 30-km exclusion zone they first made with the plant exploded. There was almost no drinkable water in the Northern Hemisphere after the explosion.

A nuclear accident happened in what was and still is Northern Ukraine near the city of Pripyat. The reactor in plant four exploded and burned.
Pripyat to the North of Ukraine.

Routine maintenance was scheduled for the fourth reactor in the plant, and workers planned to use the downtime to test whether the reactor could still be cooled if the plant lost power. During the test, workers violated safety protocols and the power surged inside the plant. Despite attempts to shut down the reactor entirely. Upon test completion, the operators triggered a reactor shutdown, but a combination of unstable conditions and reactor design flaws caused an uncontrolled nuclear chain reaction. A large amount of energy was released in an explosion vaporizing anything in its path and rupturing the reactor core. This was followed by the reactor core fire that sent huge amounts of radioactive contamination that heavily affected Western Europe and Belarus. - All by Wiki and National Geo

The reactor for plant four shutdowns, but the reactor also was in an unstable condition, and some design flaws in the reactor caused a nuclear chain reaction. Vaporizing anything in its path and rupturing the core of the reactor. This caused huge amounts of radioactive contamination. The death count of Chernobyl is around 4,000.
