A worker of the Belarussian radiation ecology reserve measures the level of radiation at Belarussian village Vorotets, inside the 30-km exclusion zone around the Chernobyl nuclear reactor, 06 April 2006. The 1986 Chernobyl disaster severely contaminated one quarter of Belarus' territory and tens of thousands of people were evacuated from their homes as radiation from Chernobyl spread throughout the area in April 1986. The 20th anniversary of the Chernobyl accident falls on 26 April 2006. VIKTOR DRACHEV/AFP/Getty Images

Doctors examine conjoined twins that were one day old on March 14, 2006 in Minsk, Belarus. The doctors are trying to determine the best possible solutions for the twins, which were joined at the pelvis. After an initial exam, they will operate and try to save just one of the twins. A 1995 United Nations report stated that the Chernobyl disaster caused a 250% increase in congenital birth deformities. On April 26, 1986, reactor number four at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Station on the border of the Ukraine and Belarus exploded. The fire, which burned out of control for five days, spewed more than 50 tons of radioactive fallout across Belarus. The wind carried the heaviest radioactive deposits across Belarus, where even today a large portion of the land is considered uninhabitable. The government denied the accident happened for several days, allowing the people in the Gomel region of Belarus to linger in the radiation. The cause of the medical illnesses are often hard to find, and much harder to prove. But, the rise in the number of cancer cases and other health problems in this region is too great for any other conclusion ? it has to be the radiation. (Photo by Ezra Shaw/Getty Images)

93 year old Zinayida Trofimivna Huzienko talks to her dog inside of her home in the village of Ilintsi on February 1, 2006 near Chernobyl, Ukraine. Zinayida being one of the eldest woman in the Forbidden Zone lives alone. Over 300 villagers live in the forbidden Exclusion Zone, after having returned to live in their own homes after the disaster. After the disaster they were misplaced and relocated to many locations over the Soviet Union. The 'Samosele' or self settlers, a name given to them by authorities, are living as before, living off the fertile albeit radioactive land. They harvest the land growing wheat, mushrooms, onions, beetroot and their own home brew vodka called 'Samahonka.' Scientists estimate that Prypyat and the surrounding area will not be safe for human habitation for several centuries. Scientists estimate that the most dangerous radioactive elements will take up to 900 years to decay sufficiently to render the area safe. (Photo by Daniel Berehulak/Getty Images)

Some 4,000 people may eventually die from radiation exposure as a result of the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear power plant disaster, but this toll is much lower than feared, according to a panel of UN experts.

Hoiniki is a city about 30 miles from Chernobyl, and only 10 miles from the restricted zone where people were evacuated due to the radiation fallout of Chernobyl. On April 26, 1986, reactor number four at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Station on the border of the Ukraine and Belarus exploded.

The abandoned town of pripyat and the Chernobyl Power Plant are seen through some scaffolding holding a remnant of the Soviet Union, the hammer and sickle, on a rooftop of an abandoned building in the town of Pripyat on January 25, 2006 near Chernobyl, Ukraine. The town of Pripyat, deserted since the 1986 catastrophe, once housed 30,000 people, the majority of being workers from the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Days after the catastrophe the inhabitants were relocated to other locations in the Soviet Union. The town of Pripyat has remained uninhabited since. Prypyat and the surrounding area will not be safe for human habitation for several centuries.

Highly radiated helicopters used to dump concrete and water on the reactor 4 during the 1986 catastrophe lay in a field near the village of Rosoha on January 31, 2006 in Chernobyl, Ukraine. From April 27 to May 5, more than 30 military helicopters flew over the burning reactor. They failed to put out the fire with 2400 tonnes of lead and 1800 tonnes of sand. Tanks, helicopters, and all terrain vehicles from the Soviet Union's Red Army were left in this dump due to their high levels of radiation. (Photo by Daniel Berehulak/Getty Images)

The memorial was opened 26 April on the seventh anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster, which killed an initial 31 people, according to Soviet officials, and sent a cloud of radiation over Europe.
