It is believed that the source of the pollution could have been one of the enterprises located on Selitskogo Street.
The situation was addressed by the Minsk City Committee for Natural Resources and Environmental Protection. They reported that they had launched an investigation into the possible dust emissions from a production facility.
To assess the level of pollution, sampling is planned, which will be conducted by the laboratory of the Republican Center for Analytical Control in Environmental Protection.
Representatives of the department noted that if an exceedance of permissible concentrations of harmful substances is established, measures will be applied to those responsible in accordance with the law.
