Russia's largest hydro-electric power plant exploded on August 17 in Siberia killing at least 10 workers and injuring 40 others. More than 50 people may be missing.
The explosion has also created a 5-km long oil slick in the Yensei River, which flows from Siberia into the Arctic. The Environmental Ministry of Russia is concerned about the impact the oil slick may have.
An oil-filled transformer exploded at the Sayano-Shushenskaya plant in Siberia, bringing down the ceiling of the turbine hall, which then flooded.
A diver has pulled one worker from an area beneath the turbine hall, but it is unclear how many may be trapped.
