Days before the start of the fishing season, dead fish emerged in the Mochuritsa River. A large amount of dead fish has been swimming in the Mochuritsa River for a second day near the villages of Palauzovo, Vodenichane and Malenovo near Straldzha. The signal was received by the mayor's deputy of the village of Palauzovo yesterday. He informed the management of the municipality of Straldzha about the danger of reaching the ecocatsatroph.

According to Ivan Dyakov, deputy mayor of the village of Palaluzovo, after transmitting the signal to the municipality of Straldzha, he warned all livestock breeders not to let their animals go. "Because they can eventually get poisoned, as the fish get poisoned, so the animals," Dyakov said.

More than 300 animals come to water here, commented the mayor of the village. One of the victims in the village is Rosen Rusev. "Almost every year there is damage to animals, they abort. I personally have a dairy farm, two days ago I had an abortion animal. What will be from now on I can not say, because they drink water, the river passes through the pasture. There is no way to limit them, "said Rosen Rusev – a livestock breeder from the village of Palauzovo.

Signals about dead fish and potential eco-catastrophe are immediately submitted to all possible institutions. Eng. Ivan Mitev – Chairman of the Municipal Council in Straldzha expects these institutions to do their job qualitatively. "Here I want to appeal to the Regional Prosecutor's Office Yambol to refer to this case, because this is really an environmental catastrophe," Mitev explained.

According to local residents, the pollution of the river starts from the municipality of Karnobat. "Two days ago, the mayor of the village of Devetak informed the Basin Directorate that there are dead fish in the river. They took water samples and yesterday we found out that they are waiting for the results, "said Ivan Mitev. "Today the Regional Food Safety Directorate came and took samples for testing from the dead fish and from there we will expect the results," he added.

This eco-disaster has been repeated for years, and no measures have been taken by the responsible institutions so far. "I sincerely hope that this time the perpetrator of this eco-catastrophe will bear the penalty," said Eng. Ivan Mitev.
