I wrote,

"In this explosion, a waste tank at the Mayak nuclear 
weapons plant, Chelyabinsk region, exploded and 
contaminated an area of 15,000 to 20,000 square 
miles with radioactivity."

In the above sentence, "15,000 to 20,000 square miles" 
should instead be "15,000 to 20,000 square kilometers."

Sorry about the mistake.
