SloveniaAn environmental incident occurred near Ptuj, Slovenia, where 28 tons of fish died due to water contamination. The local utility company, Komunalno podjetje Ptuj, denied responsibility, stating the pollution was not linked to their public sewage system. According to their statement, the contamination originated from an internal channel at Perutnine Ptuj, which connects to the public sewer system but is managed separately. Emergency teams were dispatched after police reported wastewater leakage at 5:20 AM on Wednesday. Investigations confirmed that the blockage occurred in an internal channel not under the utility’s control, and there was no overflow into the broader area. The exact cause remains under investigation by relevant authorities. The market value of the dead fish is estimated at around €280,000. The utility expressed regret over the loss of fish and the damage caused.
