Wormwood (Чорнобиль)
From Chernobyl:
    April 26 marks the 20th anniversary of Chernobyl, the worst nuclear reactor accident of all time, which occurred in the former USSR in what is now the Ukraine. The nightmare of 20 years ago still lingers. On that day the pictures of the firefighters who perished while extinguishing the fire at the scene were displayed in a memorial at the city of Slavutych.
