CHISINAU, March 13. /TASS/. Oil is flowing into Moldova’s Dniester River from Ukrainian territory, forcing authorities to cut off water to residents in some parts of the republic, Moldova's Ministry of Environment has reported.
TASS has compiled the key details known as of now.
Moldova has installed oil booms on the Dniester River after oil spilled in Ukraine and polluted the water, Environment Minister Gheorghe Hajder said.
They have been set up near the towns of Cosauti and Yampol.
Oil will be collected there to prevent them from flowing further downstream.
