Earlier, EcoPolitic wrote, that because of missile strike with 8 cruise missiles in Kryvyi Rih, the water level in the Ingulets River began to rise, 112 private houses were flooded, and about 5,000 families were left without water supply. A significant leak of water was observed at the site of the impact.
