Ministry of Health of Ukraine
Use water only from safe sources! We urge you to refrain from consuming and using untreated water from the Dnipro water area and other bodies of water in the territories most affected by the Russian terrorist attack on the Kakhovskaya HPP.
First of all, we are talking about Kherson, Mykolaiv, Zaporizhzhya, Dnipropetrovsk and Odesa regions.
This is due to the fact that due to the flooding of fields, sewage structures, cemeteries and households, the water has a high level of pollution. For example, a significant excess of microbiological indicators has already been recorded in surface water bodies. Therefore, such water cannot be used in any case, as it can lead to acute intestinal infections.
Please avoid:
🔼 swimming in water bodies;
🔼 water intake for consumption and economic needs;
🔼 feeding animals;
🔼 catching fish.
Your health and life, as well as those of your loved ones, depend on it!
We remind you that epidemic surveillance has been strengthened in the affected areas. You can use only bottled and imported water, as well as that supplied centrally through the water supply system.
