Um, only one (dubious) source saying there was a tactical nuke in there. Definitely a stupid move storing fuel and ammunition in one place like that though.
However, the European earthquake monitoring site showed an earthquake at 3.4 on the Richter scale in that area, so that's something. https://www.emsc-csem.org/#3
For perspective: 100Sv per year is the low limit for significant cancer risk increase.
This equals 100.000 microSv per year ( /8760) is about 11.4 micro-Sieverts per hour.
What the "spike" tells us is that the background dose in Khmelnytski, although 40% greater all of a sudden, is at 140 nano-Sv/hr = 0.00014 micro-Sv/hr. So, yeah, nah. Not something to get knickers in a twist about just yet. What happens when DU dust is 'burned' in an explosion is that most of it does not emit radiation anymore- it got used up so to speak. It is the 'raw dust' that is more concerning, especially if one ingests it on say - food. Best thing that could have happened to DU munitions IMO.
More perspective: Natural Background in Austria: around 0,09 microSv/h, so currently, background radiation in Austria is waaay higher, but still not dangerous.
That was one big boom. I’m not an expert, but I will say if you told me that was a tactical nuke I wouldn’t call you a liar. The secondary strike/ explosion…. Look at the shockwave, went almost straight in the air in a conical shape. Must have been pretty deep underground.
Add in some CGI effects in Zelinski's production studio and say Russia nuked something (the sheeple go wild).....and presto World War 3 goes 🚨HOT 🚨

There goes several billion US tax dollars evaporated in minutes. Thank you taxpayers.
Also might note, that's probably more pollution than every vehicle in the US puts out in a decade.

Yeah only one source (Intel drop) is making the tactical nuke claim, and from what I can see its only in the headline.
Mind you, the EU published a spike in radiation in the area - which supposedly indicates that something nuclear happened. https://is2.4chan.org/pol/1684092639463535.jpg
Is this something to worry about?

Went looking for rad Charts earlier and couldn't find this, so thanks fren.

Storm Shadow missiles, Abrams and Challenger tanks and 10% for the big guy, all gone.

This is almost certainly why Russia used drones rather than its hypersonic weapons. Make it way harder for Ukraine to distort what happened.
How many drones shot down?
Large scale kinetic.
