On 4 October 1992, an [[El Al]] [[Boeing 747|Boeing 747-F]] cargo aircraft ([[El Al Flight 1862|Flight 1862]]) crashed into an apartment building in [[Amsterdam]], Netherlands. Local residents and rescue workers complained of various unexplained health issues, which were being attributed to the release of hazardous materials during the crash and subsequent fires. Authorities conducted an epidemiological study in 2000 of those believed to be affected by the accident. The study concluded that there was no evidence to link depleted uranium (used as counterbalance weights on the elevators of the plane) to any of the reported health complaints.<ref name="Uijt"/>

There have been accidents involving uranium hexafluoride in the United States, including one in which 32 workers were exposed to a cloud of {{chem2|UF6}} and its reaction products in 1986 at a [[Gore, Oklahoma|Gore]], Oklahoma, commercial uranium conversion facility. One person died; while a few workers with higher exposure experienced short-term [[kidney damage]] (e.g., [[proteinuria|protein in the urine]]), none of them showed lasting damage from the exposure to uranium.<ref name="anl.gov FAQ 30">{{cite web |title=FAQ 30 – Have there been accidents involving uranium hexafluoride? |url=https://web.evs.anl.gov/uranium/faq/health/faq30.cfm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210302212605/https://web.evs.anl.gov/uranium/faq/health/faq30.cfm |archive-date=2 March 2021 |access-date=22 January 2022 |website=Depleted UF<sub>6</sub> Management Information Network}}</ref>
