Volunteers reported the completion of the cleanup of the shore near the village of Volna.
About 4 kilometers of coastline along the village of Volna—from Cape Zhelezny Rog to the port of Taman—have been completely cleared of emissions, garbage, and pollution. The recently opened beaches of Veselovka are also clean, the Dolphins headquarters reported.
As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," two beaches in the village of Veselovka received an expert opinion from Rospotrebnadzor—the village's Central Beach and the beach of the Veselovka Experience Hotel. Large-scale fuel oil and palm oil spills were previously reported in these areas.
The maritime operation "Rescue Cape Zhelezny Rog" has concluded. We decided not to wait for major assistance, but to act independently. "The situation was saved by 20 liters of gasoline, fishermen, their barge, a Pioneer all-terrain vehicle, and volunteers who are seeing the job through to the end. From the western side of the cape, solid waste was removed by water – thanks to the help of fishermen. From the eastern side, where the slope is almost 45 degrees, a Pioneer all-terrain vehicle worked," the Dolphins headquarters wrote today.
"Volna is clear. The sea and sand await you," the volunteers wrote. Noting that they were leaving the coastline in the care of local residents and businesses while they headed off to clean up the Kerch Strait and Cape Tuzla.
The day before, headquarters representatives reported that they had inspected Lake Solenoye and the beaches in Veselovka.
"The coast is clean. People are swimming, relaxing, and basking in the sand. Wonderful places to relax—peaceful, beautiful, and safe," the statement read.
Both of these posts on the headquarters' Telegram channel, which has 873 subscribers, remained unanswered.
