"Once this lake was the highlight of the village, there were nesting ducks, herons and fish - now the lake has become a purulent pit, which can not be approached because of the stench," - said Prikhodko.
He said that he would turn for help to the head of the Kharkiv regional state administration Oleg Synegubov to deal with this problem as soon as possible, otherwise all living things will die.
