Karl Marx Street in Muslumovo. This is one of the main streets of the village close to Techa River. The street is almost totally abandoned because radiation-levels are too high. Muslumovo has been contaminated with radioactive material from 1947 until 1954 when the Mayak Chemical Nuclear Complex dumped their radioactive waste in the Techa River which flows through Muslumuvo. Techa river is still highly radioactive, it is forbidden to swim, or drink from the river or grow vegetables at the banks. The village was never evacuated, most of its inhabitants are sick because of the radiation. (Half life book page 49)
