The 18,000 km² expanse of the Semipalatinsk Test Site (indicated in red), which covers an area the size of Wales.

 The Soviet Union conducted 456 nuclear tests at Semipalatinsk from 1949 until 1989 with little regard for their effect on the local people or environment.

The full impact of radiation exposure was hidden for many years by Soviet authorities and has only come to light since the test site closed in 1991
