Children's Rest in Kuban Health Centers Remained Equal to Summer 2024 Levels Despite Fuel Issues, as Perjudicated by Authorities

Summer 2024 health center care for children in Kuban remains unchanged, according to officials, despite the recent fuel issues.

In the picturesque city-resort of Anapa, 22 children's health camps continued to operate despite a swimming ban due to an emergency, as a new oil spill occurred in the Black Sea. The location of the oil spill is implied to be in the port of Novorossiysk, though the exact location was not specified.

This unfortunate event follows tanker collisions in the Kerch Strait last December, which caused the spill. The cleanup efforts in the Kerch Strait have resulted in around 1,174 kilometers of coastline being cleaned, but the current status or progress of these efforts is not known.

Despite the oil spill, nearly 1,600 children's health camps operated in Kuban this summer, with over 266,000 children resting in Kuban's resorts. The children's rest and health improvement in the Krasnodar region was maintained at a level similar to 2024, according to Rospotrebnadzor, indicating positive results from the organized campaign.

However, no information was provided about the effect of the new oil spill on the children's health camps or resorts in the Krasnodar region. Similarly, no information was available about the organization or institution responsible for the cleanup of the renewed oil spill in the port of Novorossiysk, or any actions taken to address it.

The meeting to discuss the oil spill cleanup was chaired by Vitaly Savelyev. Approximately 2,000 tons of contaminated soil have been collected during the cleanup in the Kerch Strait, but the impact of the new oil spill on the ongoing efforts is unknown.

This information was reported by "Live Kuban", but no updates were provided about the current status or progress of the cleanup efforts in the Kerch Strait. It's worth noting that over 45,000 children rested in Anapa, mostly from other regions, despite the swimming ban due to the emergency.

The oil spill in the Black Sea is a significant setback for the region, particularly for the children's health camps and resorts in the Krasnodar region. Further updates on the cleanup efforts and any potential impacts are eagerly awaited.
