In the temporarily occupied Mariupol, a 15.5-fold increase in radiation levels was recorded, the city's mayoral adviser Petro Andryushchenko said on Tuesday, UNN reports.

In Mariupol, a 15.5-fold increase in radiation background was recorded on Peschany beach in the port area. The level was 4.04 μSv/g, while the safety level for humans is 0.26 μSv/g. That is, 15 times higher than the safety level, 

Andriushchenko wrote on Telegram.

According to Andriushchenko, local propagandists "were in a hurry to explain that such an increase in radiation levels is safe (ridiculous) and appeared due to the storm."

"In fact, both statements are false. Indeed, there are so-called "black sands" in the area of Pishchany beach that are "phoning in". Indeed, the point level of radiation from these sands could be harmful in normal life only if you spend a lot of time here systematically. However, the real reason for the high level and exposure of the sands is not the storm, but the Russian occupation. More precisely, the bombing and rocket attacks on the city," the mayor's advisor explained.

"However, not only Pishchany. If someone were to measure the radiation level at Azovstal today, as well as analyze the composition of the soil and dust carried by the wind through the city and rain into the sea, the picture would be truly apocalyptic. That is why the Russians do not measure here, to hide the real ecocide. But that's a whole other story," Andriushchenko said.
