Nuclear safety win: Chernobyl returned to Ukrainian control

Reuters reports that as of March 31st, 2022, all Russian military forces have left the vicinity of the Chernobyl exclusion zone and its satellite town of Slavutych (where the various monitoring, safety, & support staff live).

The Guardian confirms this, and adds that the International Atomic Energy Agency has a specific timeline for having a support mission on the ground at Chernobyl, "within a few days".

Cue a medium-sized sigh of relief.
