Mining a nuclear plant, god help us.
Here's a good summary from a nuclear scientist contesting that it would not be anywhere near like Chernobyl or Fukushima. Still awful and still not desirable, but not likely to be anywhere near these two no matter what Russia does.

Edit: for the tl;dr crowd, the plant has been shut for some time so the fuel rods are much cooler and less radioactive, the reactor is much better protected, and the fuel is uranium oxide which is less problematic.
