The use of military sonars is especially harmful to dolphins. Due to the radiation from the navigation device, the mammals stop sensing the echo signals, leading to their death.
In the Black Sea, dolphins are dying in large numbers due to the actions of the aggressor country of the Russian Federation. The spokesman of the Naval Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Dmitry Pletenchuk, said this on Saturday, August 31, at a telethon.
According to him, we are talking about thousands of dead mammals.
“There’s a pretty serious number of animal deaths, especially dolphins; there’s a cosmic number, measured in the thousands,” he said.
The military says that Russia is destroying the ecosystem not only of the Black Sea, but also of the Kinburn Spit.
“We are only at the beginning of this path; it is necessary to determine the damage caused by the Russian Federation not only to Ukraine, but also to all other countries whose territories are washed by the Black Sea, Pletechnuk added.
In the temporarily occupied territory of the Donetsk region, the Russians, in cooperation with local collaborators, began to cut down forests on a large scale.
Law enforcement agencies registered criminal proceedings regarding environmental damage in the Sumy region, where about 10 tons of dead fish were collected from the Seim and Desna rivers.
