COMM A former staff photographer and designer of Chornobyl nuclear-power station Anatoly Rasskazov with his wife Galina in their flat in Kiev, Thursday, April 20. 2006. Anatoly and Galina came to their flat for several hours just from the ontological department of a hospital, where they undergo medical treatment from diseases caused by exposure to radiation during Chornobyl disaster. They both have dwelled in Prypyat and worked at Chornobyl nuclear-power station. Each of them has been receiving funds for medicaments from the government to the amount of 102 hryvnas (about 20 U.S. dollars) beginning from 2006, earlier they have received 26.80 hryvnas (about 5 U.S. dollars) each year. Each year they have to buy the required medicaments to the sum of 1300 hryvnas (about U.S. dollars) on this funds. Rasskazov is the author of the first and only photography of Chornobyl reactor made from a helicopter several hours after the explosion on April 26, 1986. A governmental commission, working in an underground shelter not far from the reactor, made conclusions about the scale of this terrible disaster on the basis of Rasskazov's photography, in particular, whether the active part of the fourth power-generating unit had been damaged. The printed photos were given to the commission on April 26, 1986, at 23.00. On the same day they were withdrawn by the Soviet security services. Two of these photos were printed only once in the photo album "Chornobyl report" in 1987. The author's name was not mentioned. The supervision of Chornobyl nuclear-power station returned some of these photos to Rasskazov a month ago. Chornobyl reactor exploded nearly 20 years in the world's worst ever nuclear accident. Ukraine is preparing to mark the 20th anniversary of this disaster on April, 26, 2006. Photo by Sergey Svetlitsky / UNIAN
