There is no evidence of pollution in the Bulgarian waters of the Black Sea as a result of the destroyed wall of the "Nova Kakhovka" dam in Ukraine, the Bulgarian Ministry of Environment reports. Satellite observations and modeling of water currents so far do not give cause for concern about water quality. To this date, no rises have been found for any of the monitored indicators.

The observation is carried out in three points in the coastal sea waters - Durankulak, Shabla and Kaliakra, as well as in three additional points located in the coastal zone. The state of coastal current, but also that of currents far into the sea is being monitored, the Ministry of Environment and Water reports.
