Militants block civil-infrastructure repairs and reconstruction near the line of demarcation in Donbass. This is stated in the statement of the Ukrainian side of the SCCC on the page of the press center of the military headquarters in Facebook, TV channel "112 Ukraine". It is noted that for a phenolic plant in the settlement of Novgorodskoye Donetsk region, in the territory under the control of the government of Ukraine, it has long been necessary to work on strengthening the emergency protection of the sludge dam. In the event of its destruction, a significant amount of harmful substances containing phenol, sulfuric acid and petroleum products can get into the Krivoi Torets rivers, and further to the Seversky Donets, which is one of the few sources of drinking water for the entire Lugansk region. A similar situation arose with the dam of the pond-storage tank of the pig farm "Bahmutsky Agrarian Union" in. Novolugansk. A delay in the repair of both facilities can lead to an ecological catastrophe and an outbreak of infections. The problem is that these dams are in the immediate vicinity of the line of delineation of the sides - in the zone of reach of shelling from any weapons of militants. At the same time, more than half a year it is not possible to restore power supply. Zaitsevo (Zhovanka) in the Donetsk region and launch a gas distribution station in the city. Marinka. Currently this station does not work. As a result, 26 thousand inhabitants of Maryinka and neighboring Krasnogorovka, 6 schools and 5 children's preschool institutions are not provided with gas for domestic needs and do not have heating during the winter period. Also forced to stand idle "Krasnogorovsky refractory plant", "Mariinsky bakery" and Mariinsky dairy enterprise "Laktis". In the list of objects requiring restoration, repair or inspection, one should also add a water conduit that provides technical water to the Avdeevka Coke Plant, the Gorlovka-Toretskoy water pipe and others.
