Russian invasion caused $26 billion in damage to Ukraine’s environment and natural resources, Minister of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources of Ukraine Ruslan Strilets said at the briefing.

“The ministry has transferred more than 300 cases to law enforcement agencies for investigation and now continues to record all the losses in order to claim compensation from the Russian Federation through international courts,” Strilets said, adding that the largest losses are caused by burning of oil products, forest fires, and rocket explosions.
