Over the past 24 hours, rescuers in the Kharkiv region extinguished 31 fires in natural ecosystems. The area of burned land amounted to over 22 hectares.
WARNING! Burning of plant residues is strictly prohibited!
Administrative liability for burning stubble, meadows, pastures, and fallen leaves ranges from 3,060 to 6,120 hryvnias.
Dry fires in de-occupied territories or in areas where there has been intense fighting can lead to the detonation of unexploded ordnance. This is extremely dangerous for life, including the lives of rescuers!
We urge the public not to provoke fires in natural ecosystems! Be responsible!
