An official familiar with current assessments said Russian shelling hit a radioactive waste repository at Chernobyl, and an increase in radiation levels was reported. The increase could not be immediately corroborated.

If the site [1] is real (the site is relatively new, and could be part of a disinformation campaign), then at least one sensor is currently reading 65.5k nanosieverts per hour.

Not great, not terrible.
