NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
The UK's nuclear testing programme, which took place in the 1950s, involved thousands of military personnel who were exposed to nuclear explosions, often with little protection. Many of these veterans, now elderly, have long claimed that they were used as test subjects without their knowledge or consent, and have campaigned for recognition and compensation. The Ministry of Defence's admission of "extensive" human radiation experiments marks a significant development in a decades-long controversy surrounding the treatment of nuclear test veterans.
