19 May 2022 13:44
Leakage of hazardous substance could kill all flora and fauna in the Sea of Azov
There was a threat of the complete extinction of the Sea of Azov due to enemy bombing of the Azovstal metallurgical plant in the besieged Mariupol.
On Wednesday, May 18, the press service of the Mariupol City Council announced the impending threat of an eco-catastrophe in a telegram.
The city council said that the destruction of the steel plant could damage the technical structure, which stores tens of thousands of tons of hydrogen sulfide solution.
"The leakage of this liquid will completely kill the flora and fauna of the Sea of Azov. Further, dangerous substances can enter the Black and Mediterranean Seas," they warned.
Mariupol Mayor Vadym Boychenko emphasized that international experts and the United Nations must be immediately admitted to the facility to study the situation and prevent a "world-class environmental catastrophe."
