Water for the residents of Donbass is supplied in full through the water pipeline from the Rostov region. This was announced on Friday, August 18, by Timur Ivanov, Deputy Russian Minister of Defense.
He clarified that 288,000 cubic meters of water are supplied to the residents of Donbass in this way every day.
Ivanov also said that about 3.5 thousand people and 1.5 thousand units of equipment worked on the construction of the Don-Seversky Donets water conduit.
In July, the head of the Melitopol district of the Zaporozhye region, Andrey Siguta, reported that water from the Kakhovka reservoir no longer flows into the North Crimean Canal. On the night of June 6, the upper part of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station was destroyed, as a result of which there was an uncontrolled discharge of water from the Kakhovka reservoir and flooding of the regions of the Kherson region downstream of the Dnieper.
However, the head of the Crimea, Sergei Aksyonov, said that at the moment there are no risks for the supply of Crimeans with drinking water. According to him, after the cessation of the Dnieper water supply through the North Crimean Canal, only agricultural production may suffer. As of August 1, the water that entered the North Crimean Canal from the Kakhovka reservoir before the destruction of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station will last for another three months.
