50/50 Either Tallin or St Petersburg. One of them is not in Russia, but both are Russian-style (ie Chernobyl) water pressure reactors. One of them leaked in a massive scale, but thanksfully only twice.

Please stop spreading false information. Estonia does not have nuclear reactors and Tallinn is written with only 1 n in Russian.

Estonia would have immediately shared the information about the accident with the allies. Russia always (without exceptions) tries to hide it from the world

Yes, I was wrong. The 2nd nearby is Murmansk, and that's to far away for that measurements. So it's clear that it was from the stone aged St Petersburg plant, a design before Chernobyl 3+4 (which was iter 2). Their broken Unit 1 is shut down, but the old 2-4 are still online, plus 4 modern ones.

Or that military ship Akademik Aleksandrov which was nearby at that time. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23664056

Despite what the article may say, I think it's premature to rule out a naval reactor.

I'd expect Estonia to have admitted it already if it was on their side.

For Russia, my expectations are completely different.

I'd expect Estonia to be very surprised and alarmed if it was on their side, given that there are no nuclear power stations or weapons in Estonia.
