Dead fish have started washing up again on the shores of #Crimea in the past several days, local Telegram channels report.

The #Russian authorities claim that it has nothing to do with the pollution from last year's #Volgoneft oil spill,

"If only #russia wasn't so criminal!" 😡

this incident is additional proof that the operations of #Russia's ageing fleet and its shadow vessels pose great environmental risks around the globe.

Two #Volgoneft tankers were recently wrecked in the #Kerch_Strait, causing a massive oil spill that created an environmental disaster.

"How much of the world's nature will #putins_russia destroy?"

Six dead dolphins were found washed up on the shores of #Novorossiysk, according to #Russian Telegram channels. The likely cause is the #Volgoneft fuel oil spill, which poses a serious threat to marine life in the region.

Έξι νεκρά δελφίνια βρέθηκαν ξεβρασμένα στις ακτές του Νοβοροσίσκ, σύμφωνα με ρωσικά κανάλια Telegram. Η πιθανή αιτία είναι η διαρροή μαζούτ της #Volgoneft, η οποία αποτελεί σοβαρή απειλή για τη θαλάσσια ζωή στην περιοχή. Η Μαύρη Θάλασσα φιλοξενεί τρία είδη θαλάσσιων θηλαστικών

😭 The first dead dolphin was found on the #Black_Sea coast after a fuel oil spill.

The pollution zone on the coast of #Krasnodar_Krai after two accidents with #Volgoneft tankers in the #Kerch #Strait has grown to 50 km. A state of emergency has been declared in #Anapa, and volunteers are

Diese Aufnahme soll vom Tanker #Volgoneft 109 stammen, der in der Nähe des Hafens von Kaukasus im Schwarzen Meer ein Notsignal gesendet hat. Berichten zufolge ist durch einen Riss im Rumpf Öl ausgelaufen. Es sind halt Schiffe für Binnenwasserstraßen.

Es sei noch mal darauf hingewiesen, dass diese Tank eigentlich für Binnengewässer gebaut wurden.
Und so sieht es nach dem sinken der beiden Tanker #Volgoneft 212 und 239 am Schwarzmeer Strand aus.

"So the 3rd tanker didn't sink?"

#Russian Telegram channels report that a third #Volgoneft vessel carrying 4,000 tons of #mazut has reported leaking in one of the tanks.

Yesterday's 🛢️ spill in the #KerchStrait threatens an environmental disaster due to tons of fuel oil leaking into the sea.

The spill involving 2 #Volgoneft tankers could become the largest environmental disaster in the region. According to estimates, 10000 tons of oil products spilled into the sea.

#Volgoneft vessels classified river/sea . So not fit for the #Baltic route. Only one in the fleet has an IMO number. All Russian flagged so niet, no damages will be paid. Fucking pirates.

This is the second #Volgoneft ship to be wrecked by waves in recent memory—this is allegedly due to poor workmanship when the ship was upgraded.

A rescue operation is ongoing. If the tanker's contents spill into the sea, it could spell ecological disaster.

#Crimea #Ukraine
A second tanker, #Volgoneft 239, was also destroyed by the waves just an hour after the 212, Russian Telegram channels report. The storm gets stronger and stronger and sinks orcs😉
