Silence in the Balaklee

In the 10-kilometer zone – around the ammunition depot in the Kharkov region and adjacent settlements – the territory has been completely cleared  from explosive objects. In total, 26 thousand ammunitions were confiscated.

The headquarters for the liquidation of the consequences of the emergency continue working. On holidays, the pyrotechnic unit was sent on duty, and after Easter three units remained to fulfill the requests of the local residents.

In the surviving houses there is light and gas, works on restoration of an available housing have begun. In total, the state commission recorded more than two hundred damaged houses, of which 117 are multi-apartment, 87 private, 12 social facilities, as well as 22 infrastructure and industrial facilities.

Unfortunately, ammunition for a billion dollars have burnt in the fire. Currently it’s impossible to determine  how much will it cost to restore the housing stock and other affected objects .
