From: Mads Nielsen How most of the old shtetls around Mogilev in Eastern Belorus looked in 2006, when the Canadian charity organisation "Guardian Angles" filmed some of the places in remote Belorussian villages, where they were distributing necessary and basic aid to the poorest part of the local population. Most of Southern and Eastern Belarus were severe polluted by radiation at the Chernobyl disaster in April 1986, and even that the areas around Mogilev are located nearly 375 km = 233 miles north of Chernobyl, some areas around Mogilev also have been declared as a part of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, and the local population has been evacuated to other areas with less radiation. Because the main industry in Belarus is based on agriculture and that at least 30-40% of the Belorussian soil is severe polluted by radiation, nobody will import their food products, which has caused a severe poverty in most of this country. The health of big parts of the local population in Polesia and Eastern Belarus is bad, as a consequence from the Chernobyl disaster back in 1986. youtube/watch?v=-hEESsJe5wE
