The response involved more than 500,000 personnel and cost an estimated 18 billion rubles (about $85 billion in 2026).[2] It remains the most destructive nuclear disaster[3][4] and the most expensive disaster in history, with an estimated cost of US$700 billion.[5]

The government did not publicly acknowledge the disaster until two days after the explosion, when elevated radiation levels were detected in Sweden.[8]
