Kyiv: A latest video of areas abandoned by the Russian forces has revealed the troops had dug trenches in the Red Forest, the most contaminated area of Chernobyl's exclusion zone.
According to BusinessInsider, the video shows land that looks dug up, in a continuous shot that pans to an image of the sarcophagus covering the site of the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear accident in the distance.
It was filmed by the Ukrainian military and released on Telegram by Energoatom, the state-owned operator of Ukraine's nuclear power plants.
The Russian troops had left the area after five weeks since invading the Chenobyl exclusion zone on February 24.
Meanwhile, the International Atomic Energy Agency has said it is probing into the claims by the Ukrainian military. (UNI)
