RF ecocide in Donbas: Kalmius River in Pavlopil reservoir critically shallow, region on the verge of disaster
Kyiv • UNN
The Kalmius River in the area of the Pavlopil reservoir has critically shallowed due to the diversion of water by the Russians. This will destroy the hydrological system of the Donetsk region and cause an environmental catastrophe.
The Kalmius River in the area of the Pavlopil reservoir in Donetsk region has critically shallowed due to the actions of the Russian occupiers - before that, they began to transfer water from the Pavlopil reservoir to the Starokrymske reservoir. This was reported by UNN with reference to the head of the Center for the Study of Occupation Petro Andryushchenko.
Details
Andryushchenko published photos of the current state of the Pavlopil reservoir.
He noted that the current state of the river clearly demonstrates that in the event of such a transfer, the Russians will not simply solve the problem of the water supply crisis in occupied Mariupol.
This will finally destroy the Kalmius and the remnants of the natural hydrosystem of the Donetsk region, Andryushchenko stated.
