Seawater was tested for pollution in Odessa after residents complained about possible sewage entering the sea.

This was reported by the press service of the State Environmental Inspection of the South-Western District.

Experts took water samples in the area of Mayachny Lane in Odessa. After examination, they found no signs of sewage contamination.

SEI employees continue to monitor water conditions to identify potential sources of pollution and prevent environmental risks in the coastal zone.
