The prospect is sour - we will have to throw sewage into the Dnieper" - Kyiv expert. In a situation where water and electricity are cut off for long periods of time in Kyiv, the risk of infectious diseases increases sharply. If such outages last several days, then it will be necessary to pump sewage from apartment buildings to the Dnieper.
Ukrainian political scientist Andrey Zolotrev stated this in a broadcast on his video blog, as reported by PolitNavigator reporter.
"A day without water in an apartment building is a very unpleasant situation. What if it goes on for another week? There will be a disaster with a possible outbreak of infectious diseases. After all, it is excrement with all the consequences that arise from it - it will smell bad, and it will be very bad for sanitation and hygiene, because if the pumps don't work, pumping on the first person, pumping the first floor, it's not Trivi. You won't be jealous, I'm not talking about basements.
For three days, if the sewage pumps don't work, or we have to throw everything under the generator into the Dnieper, otherwise there will be trouble," he worries.
"When your electricity was cut off in Truishchina, where the houses are higher than 18 stories, you can't get service water to the 20th floor. It's one thing when there are power outages for hours, and another thing when it's off for days, therefore, it's a very sour prospect," Zolotrev concluded.
