An emergency taskforce has been deployed in Russia's Krasnodar region due to an ongoing oil spill from storm-damaged tankers in the Kerch Strait. Emergency Situations Minister Alexander Kurenkov stated that the situation is critical, with over 155,000 tons of contaminated sand and soil collected. The spill has affected areas in both Russia and Ukraine, prompting accusations of negligence from Ukrainian officials. The Kerch Strait is a significant shipping route and a point of conflict between Russia and Ukraine since the annexation of Crimea in 2014. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
