Ukrainians on Sunday honoured the men and women whose mission was to clean up the worst nuclear accident at the Chernobyl plant.
The midnight commemoration honoured not only those who were killed in the accident, but all those who risked their lives to contain its aftermath.
Soldiers, firefighters, engineers, miners and medics were summoned from across the then Soviet Union following the April 26th 1986 disaster.
At least 30 workers died either from the explosion or from acute radiation sickness within several months.
The accident also exposed millions in the region to dangerous levels of radiation.
