Yeah they have a bunch of wild shit as environmental disasters from when the USSR existed. Like the giant ass aral sea just drying all the way up in the 60s in pic. They found old biolabs in former soviet states that just had weaponized anthrax in test tubes just laying around and they fucked up some kazak people so bad from nuke testing they had to give out genetic passports to them to prevent them from breeding cause their dna was fucked bad.
