The environment of the Chernihiv region suffered 676 million hryvnias in damage due to the destruction of the Yuri Gagarin Stadium in Chernihiv by the Russian army.

This amount of damage caused to the environment as a result of Russian aggression is calculated by specialists of the State Ecological Inspectorate (SEI) in Chernihiv region.

It is noted that the stadium was first shelled on March 5, 2022. At that time, only the east stand was damaged in the arena. And on March 11, as a result of the night air bombardment, the stadium suffered significant damage: the premises and buildings were damaged. The destruction was caused by littering of land with fragments of structures and construction waste in an area of ​​31,100 m2.

In view of this fact, environmental inspectors calculated the amount of damage caused to the environment due to land litter.

Official calculations will be handed over to law enforcement agencies in order to receive further reparations.
