"Anything connecting to environmental hazards should not be classified. But again to make a decision that this is an environmental hazard, someone has to make that decision and that's not the easiest. There will be most likely leaks further on. There were leaks, they were happening from time to time giving a more fuller picture of what has happened. But the main essential things is the isotope spectrum that was involved, and quantity of radioactivity, and where the heck it is."

"Of course this is not a Chernobyl because there is a thousand times, ten thousands times less radioactive material involved. But still, it is unpleasant and could be dangerous and could potentially, if it got into the sea actually, get into the food chains of marine life there."

STORYLINE:
Speculation continued Wednesday over a mysterious explosion at a weapons testing range in the far northwest of Russia in which five nuclear engineers were killed.
Changing or contradictory information from Russian authorities has raised further questions about what happened and what type of weapon was involved.
The blast last Thursday caused a brief spike in radiation levels and forced the temporary evacuation of the nearby village of Nyonoksa, about 1,000 kilometres (621 miles) north of Moscow.
First word of the explosion came from the Russian Defense Ministry, which initially said the explosion of a liquid-propellant rocket engine killed two people and injured six others.
It said in a statement that no radiation had been released, although officials in the nearby city of Severodvinsk reported a brief rise in radiation levels, a contradiction that recalled Soviet-era cover-ups of disasters like the Chernobyl disaster.
Two days later, Russia's state-controlled nuclear agency Rosatom acknowledged that the explosion occurred on an offshore platform during tests of a nuclear isotope power source, and that it killed five nuclear engineers and injured three others.
It's still not clear whether those casualties were in addition those reported earlier as dead and injured.
The city administration in Severodvinsk, an industrial city that hosts a huge shipyard building nuclear submarines, said the radiation levels rose to 2 microsieverts per hour for about 30 minutes on Thursday before returning to the area's average natural level of 0.1 microsieverts per hour.
That prompted residents to rush to local pharmacies to buy iodine, which can help limit the damage from exposure to radiation.
A pharmacist in the city, Maria Pakula, told AP that a resident of Nyonoksa came to buy iodine for the whole village.
"She bought (things) for the whole settlement," Pakula said. "It was about 50 vials of iodine and 10 packets of pills."
A later report from Russia's state environmental monitoring agency said the peak radiation reading in Severodvinsk on Thursday was 1.78 microsieverts per hour in just one section of the city, while peak readings in other parts of Severodvinsk varied between 0.45 and 1.33 microsieverts per hour.
It said that radiation levels returned to normal after two and a half hours.
The authorities have said that a brief increase in radiation didn't pose any health dangers.
The recorded peak levels were indeed lower than the cosmic radiation that plane passengers are exposed to on longer haul flights.
Military analyst Pavel Felgenhauer said that in theory the government is required by law to declassify anything that might cause environmental hazards.
"Of course this is not a Chernobyl because there is ten thousands times less radioactive material involved. But still, it is unpleasant and could be dangerous and could potentially, if it got into the sea actually, could get into food chains of marine life there" he said.
Local emergency officials announced after taking ground samples from around the area that they found no trace of radioactive contamination.
Neither the Defence Ministry nor Rosatom named the type of weapon that exploded at the base, which is the main testing ground for a variety of Russian missiles including intercontinental ballistic missiles intended for the nation's nuclear submarines.
In a statement Rosatom said the explosion occurred during tests of a "nuclear isotope power source" and led observers to conclude it was the Burevestnik (Storm Petrel), a nuclear-powered cruise missile code-named Skyfall by NATO.
The Burevestnik missile, along with other so-called Doomsday weapons, was first revealed by Russian President Vladimir Putin in his March 2018 state-of-the-nation address.
"These weapons mean that they can be a source of environmental hazard and possible disasters without any war happening, because they are dangerous to deal with on their own," according to Felgenhauer.
President Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday the organisation conducting the tests had already made its statement.
"They have provided information, they have explained the cause of the accident that occurred during the tests and, to our great regret, led to the heroic death of our colleagues. I have nothing more to add to this," he said.
