<div id="ygrps-yiv-1356948490">None whatsoever. It&#39;s very difficult to find anything about <br/>
San&#39;kovo/Medvezhe on the internet. The only Russian site that <br/>
mentions it is a government site saying that it is a hazardous area <br/>
because of the Chernobyl radiation contamination...<br/>
<br/>
You can see part of the enclave at <br/>

Here the two villages are called San&#39;kov (without the o) and <br/>
Medvezhe. &quot;San&#39;kova&quot; is a typo, by the way.<br/>
