Large-scale fire threatens three settlements in occupied Crimea

A "landscape" fire occurred on the occupied peninsula. Twenty hectares of dead wood along the Yevpatoria-Simferopol highway were burning.

This was reported by hostile Russian telegram channels.

Local residents filmed the fire and posted it on social media.

The Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations commented that firefighters have already dealt with this situation, preventing the fire from spreading to three settlements.

However, this is not the only problem on the peninsula. The summer tourist season in Crimea has failed.

And any manifestation of freedom, despite the generally accepted "norms", is also being "fought". Thus, the subscribers of one of the local publics did not like the song, which contains the words "Ukraine is not dead yet, if we walk like this". As a result, the DJ was fired from his job.

There are also problems with water in Crimea. The Crimean reservoirs have become mineralized and unsuitable for watering vegetables and for any other use in the economy.

The Achiklar district is a place where Crimean Tatars, after returning from deportation in the 1990s, arbitrarily arranged their housing. They created streets and gave them their own, unofficial names in the Crimean Tatar language. The occupiers dismantled the street name signs.

The occupation authorities of Crimea decided to introduce the future profession to the students of nuclear engineering by sending future power engineers to the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant. The management of the plant itself promised to hold training courses, meetings with "managers" and practice at the fire safety training ground.

Human rights activists estimate that the peninsula's nature has been damaged to the tune of three trillion hryvnias.
