A Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is 'of'. The phrase 'victims of' is the correct prepositional phrase used with 'victims' to indicate what they have suffered from. 'Should compensation be paid to victims of nuclear tests?' correctly asks about people who suffered harm from nuclear testing. 'Victims of' is the standard collocation - victims suffer from or experience something. Option B 'victims for' would indicate purpose. Option C 'due to' would be used with the cause, not 'victims'. Option D 'because of' is a phrase indicating cause but doesn't collocate with 'victims'.
