One of the residents, Yana, learned about the incident from a neighbor around 11:40. «We called our district emergency service. The dispatcher asked us to wait because the plumber was on a call. When water started seeping into our apartment, we called the Ministry of Emergency Situations (MChS). We have two small children, and boiling water was running from the pipe,» she said.

Emergency services and plumbers work to contain the water and repair the faulty radiator.

Later, a plumber shut off the riser, which stopped the spread of water. The dispatch service of the management company explained that the cause was a faulty radiator and reported that the consequences of the accident have already been eliminated.
