Russia-appointed officials in occupied Crimea have announced a regional emergency as oil was detected on the shores of Sevastopol, the peninsula's largest city.
Fuel oil spilled out of two stricken tankers nearly three weeks ago in the Kerch Strait, about 250 kilometres from Sevastopol on the southwest of the peninsula.
"Today a regional emergency regime has been declared in Sevastopol," regional Governor Mikhail Razvozhaev wrote on Telegram.
Oil was found on four beaches in the region and was "promptly eliminated" by local authorities working together with volunteers, Razvozhaev said.
"Let me emphasise: there is no mass pollution of the coastline in Sevastopol," he wrote.
Razvozhaev's announcement came after authorities in Russia's southern Krasnodar announced a region-wide emergency last week, as the fuel oil continued washing up on the coastline 10 days after one tanker ran aground and the other was left damaged and adrift.
Krasnodar regional Governor Veniamin Kondratyev said that almost 7,000 people were still working to clean up the spill on Saturday.

Actually, four of the tankers designed for service in the calm waters of the Sea Of Azof broke apart in the stormy dangerous waters of the Black Sea.
The Russians erected barriers to protect the bridge to Crimea so close together that the Black Sea tankers were too large for passage. They pressed the structurally inadequate ut narrow tankers into service only to see them literally get torn apart by the Black Sea

Russian forces advanced by 3,985 square kilometres (1,539 square miles) in Ukraine in 2024, seven times more than in 2023, according to an AFP analysis of data from the US-based Institute for the Study of War (ISW).
Much of the Russian gains came in the autumn, as they took 610 square kilometres in October and 725 square kilometres in November. Those two months saw the Russians conquer the most territory since March 2022, in the early weeks of the conflict.

However it is already nearly four times bigger than in the same month of the previous year and two and a half times more than in December 2022.
So I’m a zeeptard for just calling it like I see it. I don’t have a horse in that fight, and why I think we need to get out of funding it.
But whatever...you got your putin lipstick on as you blow him. Got it.

This proxy war in Ukraine, one that we provoked and have done everything we can to continue, has been disaster.
All the attempts to undermine Trump for nine years has been because he opposed starting and fighting wars to enrich our political class and elite.
Ok facts are now propaganda.
