Since the beginning of April, more than half of the monthly rainfall has fallen in the region, which has led to an increase in the water level in the rivers.
Due to the abnormal amount of rain in the Zhytomyr region, the water level in the rivers rose and there was a flood of crossings and individual private households in the settlements of Malinskaya and Naroditskaya. This was announced on April 7 by the head of Zhytomyr OVA Vitaliy Bunechko.
In relation to the situation, a meeting of the regional commission for fuel and energy and emergency situations was held, where decisions were made aimed at overcoming the consequences of the emergency in the north of the region.
“In total, since the beginning of April, more than half of the monthly rainfall has fallen in the region, which has led to an increase in the water level in the Teterev River and Pripyat River basins. The situation is gradually returning to normal, and the The risk of new flooding is decreasing,” said the head of OVA.
Four million hryvnias are allocated from the reserve fund of the regional budget by the decision of the commission for fuel and energy and emergency situations for the creation of a new temporary crossing in Malin. It was noted that the structure, which was once built next to the bridge that was destroyed during the Russian bombing, could not withstand the pressure of the flood water.
It was earlier reported that in Kramatorsk, Donetsk region, hundreds of houses were flooded due to damage to part of the dam.
