Russia Is Trying To Cover Up Radiation Spike After Skyfall Blast (Video)
Last week on August 8th, a mysterious bomb explosion shook a military test site in a part of northern Russia, close to the port of Severodvinsk. Russian authorities released a statement claiming that at least five engineers were killed in an accident involving scientific experiments on a liquid-propelled rocket engine.
The Russian Defence Ministry stated that no harmful chemicals or radioactive waste was released into the atmosphere and radiation levels were unchanged.

However, they soon removed the statement from their website as new information on radiation spikes after, presumably a nuclear blast, emerged.

Ksenia Yudina, a spokeswoman for the city of Severodvinsk reported that radiation levels briefly rose by up to 16 times on the day of the nuclear bomb blast.

Local citizens were reported to be stocking iodine tablets which are used to reduce the effects of the nuclear energy explosion.

While Russia doesn’t release the details that might explain what caused the radiation spike, US experts offer their insight.

They believe that the deceased engineers may have been working on an experimental missile with a nuclear propulsion system, which Russia calls 9M730 Buresvestnik. The same missile is known as SCC-X-Skyfall.
US President Donald Trump has made the same connection tweeting on Monday: “The Russian ‘Skyfall’ explosion has people worried about the air around the facility, and far beyond. Not good!”
