| Photolog: Restoration of Mariupol |

| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [REGNUM] Peace has finally come to the liberated Mariupol. Shots and the roar of guns are not heard, only explosions of mine clearing are occasionally heard. Ukrainian troops have mined the territory for more than one year, so the process of getting rid of mines will not be quick. The war is gone from the city (hopefully forever), but have the problems disappeared? No, a lot of problems remain - in most of the city there is no electricity, water supply and gas. Well, in the cold period, heat will obviously not come to all Mariupol houses. Are these problems being solved? Yes, but the process of completely rebuilding the city will take several years, given the extent of the destruction. And what do the Ukrainian media say about this, which back in March unanimously claimed that Mariupol is better protected than the famous Fort Knox? Now these journalists have a new "song" - no one will restore the city, since the Russian budget will not pull such a feat. I would like to recall the restoration of the city of Grozny, which was destroyed during the Chechen war more than Mariupol. Now many European cities can envy the skyscrapers of this settlement. Lies of the Ukrainian media number two. Specialists who came to the city (and Mariupol, as we remember, no one will restore) occupy the few surviving houses in the city, driving residents out onto the streets. Personally, I saw a large tent city in the village of Melekino (about ten kilometers from Mariupol), where employees of the Russian Emergencies Ministry live. Lots of tents... Each district of Mariupol will be restored by one of the Russian cities. The central district of Zhovtnevy, where I lived, will be restored by the forces of St. Petersburg. Municipal equipment from St. Petersburg is present on Mariupol roads and streets in considerable quantities. At the moment (almost around the clock) garbage and debris are being removed, rubble is being sorted out, under which there are still bodies of people and, possibly, unexploded ordnance. Along the way, commissions work in the city, which decide whether it is technically possible to repair the house or whether it needs to be demolished “under the root” and a modern high-rise building should be built in its place. And after that there will be a special map of the city, on which the picture of the upcoming work will be fully visible. But it is already clear that a lot of construction work is underway, and it began before the hostilities in Mariupol were fully completed ... |
