Looting in Pripyat
…Dark corridor, the inner yard of the shop is already seen through the door and suddenly…I hear people’s voices and the roar of the engine.
Aha… There are looters here…

Pripyat. Winter 2006. Photo report, part 2
Pripyat... The city in the epicentre of the Chernobyl disaster looks drearily and terrifying...
It is a very differense on summer. Green vegetation, singing of the birds, swarms of midges after all...
Now, just you make a step away from the group, at once you feel absolute panic lonely...

Uncle Vitya
Uncle Vitya lived at the second floor, right over us in 3-room apartment.
I saw him often, especially in summer, when didn’t go to school. Or not in summer, when played truant and was trespassing in the yard. I saw him in the morning when parents went to work and sent me for a walk for the whole day (it concerns that time when children went to school alone and could play in the yard till the time when parents returned from work).

Lyubov Sirota - "Excessive Burden" - Part 4
Also it is necessary to take into account, that as a result of accident many new elements were formed. Still in 1988 our Ukrainian academician of biophysical sciences Dmitrij Grodzinsky wrote about it.He named more than 200 elements, but on his opinion the most dangerous from all –it's so-called “hot particles” - the alloy of different elements with the plumbum, which by hundreds tons was dumped in the destroyed reactor. Notice, that till now there are only the devices, capable tomeasure only some the radionuclides acquired by the person (briefly living iodine both long living strontium and cesium!). Presence of “hot particles” in an organism of the person (most of all in a lungs) was observed by the Belarus scientists only after death of victims (one “hot particle” irradiates fabrics around of itself up to 3000 roentgens – BER, biological equivalent of a radio-activity), therefore the cancer of lungs so frequently was met at the Belarus machine operators and tractor operators already from 1988, and the more often – than closer to a zone of the rigid radioactive control they worked...

Lyubov Sirota - "Excessive Burden" - Part 2
Once I was by the witness of a performance of such instruction. Somehow in May, 1986 we with Lyubov Kovalevskaya once again came back from the Chernobyl zone (where that spring we went enough frequently for people, which were not trusting then to official mass-media, writing at that time only about "nightingales in Pripyat", but to us,to Pripyat journalists, they told about the most secret) – at the House of Creativity in Irpen' near Kiev (where the Union of Writers of Ukraine – temporarily and almost illegally – has lodged us, then young authors, first us ourselves and then together with our children, and our gratitude to them for these some months of a lifenot in the streetwill be immense always).

Elimination of Chernobyl cultural objects in Belarus?
In the evacuated areas near Mogilev, they are in the process of bulldozing and burying all the empty buildings. The only feasible reason, which the source heard for this, was that this region is Lukashenko's home region, and he wanted to "clean it up". There are very few houses still standing

| A Voice from Dead Pripyat |
 |
| In her poems Lyuba entrusts her soul to other people. She believes that people will carry on this burden and help her, as she herself is ready to help everyone who lives on earth. The source of her faith is a crystal-clear spring of love, friendship, comradeship, mutual understanding, which penetrates her lyrics from the beginning to the end.
