Last Thursday, thousands of students of the Vladivostok State University of Economics and Service and other universities of Primorye took to the streets under the slogan "We do not want to be mutants and guinea pigs!". Students protested against nuclear tests in North Korea. They submitted a petition to the DPRK consulate demanding an end to nuclear testing. In addition, students intend to appeal to all universities of the world with an appeal to join anti-nuclear actions.
To this day, the measurement of the level of radiation in South Primorye is carried out on an hourly basis and will continue for another one and a half weeks. On the day of the test, October 9, Primhydromet specialists calculated the displacement of the radioactive cloud in case it did form. According to experts, westerly winds prevailed over North Korea and southern Primorye last Monday, so the hypothetical cloud could move over the Sea of Japan 200-300 km south of Primorsky Krai. The residents of Vladivostok were not reassured by the forecast of Primhydromet, and they began to buy up dosimeters, while the youth came out to protest. Protests under the slogans "No to nuclear Juche!", "After the seaside autumn - nuclear winter?", "Explosion in North Korea - a strike on Primorye" were held not only in Vladivostok, but also in Nakhodka.
Meanwhile, the tsunami warning service in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk did not record any tremors.
The Ministry of Emergency Situations of Primorye asked North Korean diplomats for complete information about the tests. There is no response to the request yet. In the meantime, Primorye people start the day by monitoring the level of radiation on the Primhydromet website.
