Information about the release of toxic gases into the atmosphere by enterprises in the Bektemir district of Tashkent has spread on social networks.

The situation was investigated by inspectors from the Department of Ecology of the Bektemir district of Tashkent city. As a result of the study, the fact of the malfunction of the filtering devices in the "Bekuz Kelazhak" greenhouse was established, and car tires were used to ignite the fire.

At the same time, the company had previously received a warning about the need to repair the boiler room, update special dust and gas filters, and ban the burning of car tires, as the head of the greenhouse wrote in an explanation letter.

At present, staff from the eco-laboratory are working in the greenhouse to calculate the damage caused to the environment.
