The total amount of damage to soil and land contamination is more than 688 billion hryvnias.

For atmospheric air pollution, the total amount of damage is 998 billion hryvnias. And for pollution, contamination of water resources the damage is calculated more than 56 million hryvnias.

280,904 m2 — soils contaminated with hazardous substances,

686,816 tons — of oil products burned during shelling, polluting the air with hazardous substances,

33 132 hectares of forest and other plantations were scorched by missiles and shells, some of them will be renewed within ten years, and this is under the most optimistic calculations, the rest — lost forever;

1 063 947 m2 — objects, including critical infrastructure, destroyed, their remains damaged the environment.

1,597 tons — mass of pollutants released into water bodies;

2,903,513 kg — mass of foreign objects, materials, waste and/or other substances that entered water bodies;
