In the temporarily occupied territory of Donetsk region, Russian forces began an information campaign regarding the use of mine water, which is presented as an “alternative” source of drinking water.
Experts of the Center of National Resistance indicate that the initiative is part of a broader campaign to legalize toxic waters containing hazardous substances, including heavy metals and radionuclides, instead of real efforts to restore infrastructure.
At the same time, the authorities tried to instill the idea of the positive experience of similar practices in Russia.
Water from Donbas mines, according to experts, has serious health risks due to the accumulation of toxic substances and radiation, especially in areas where nuclear research was conducted.
Experts warn that consumption of such waters can cause serious diseases, including neurological disorders and an increased risk of cancer. However, the occupation administrations not only ignore these threats, but also use the situation to cover up corruption schemes and embezzlement.
In the conditions of constant hostilities and the destruction of water intakes, the population of Donbas finds itself in a dangerous situation, since there is practically no alternative to normal water supply. As a result, the use of mine waters is not only an ecological, but also a medical disaster, which requires an urgent response from the international community.
