On May 29, a fuel leak occurred on the territory of the thermal power station in Norilsk, which became the largest environmental disaster in the history of the Arctic, but it was not discussed until June 3. Did the authorities really not hear anything about the incident or tried to hide it? Norilsk Nickel wanted to shut up workers, bloggers and journalists? What is the real scale and causes of the disaster? How did the locals react to the accident?
