“During the excavation, the wall collapsed, and the gas pipe became visible. We suspected that the fence would also fall, and it happened the next day, damaging the low-pressure main. We discovered a gas leak and immediately shut it off,” residents report.
Concerned locals are urgently calling on the authorities to respond to the situation and take the necessary measures.
