Dosimeters and maps for exercises of the 135th Territorial Defense Battalion.

In the fall of 2020 russian troops were holding exercises in Belarus. There was a threat of sabotage groups crossing the border, so defenses along the Chornobyl Zone were being reinforced.

A separate reconnaissance platoon of the 135th Territorial Defense Battalion went out on an exercise, and it needed what we had: dosimeters and detailed maps. We provided them. The soldiers did not measure more than 0.16 microsieverts that day.

A year and a half later, russian columns moved on Kyiv from exactly there - from Belarus, through the Zone.
