According to the department, all work is being carried out in compliance with safety measures. The area has been cordoned off, with officers from the Uzbekistan Military Unit for Anti-Fountain and Gas Safety, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the State Inspectorate "Sanoatkontexnazorat," and invited foreign specialists on duty. It is emphasized that there is no threat to the population of the nearby areas.

This is not the first incident at this well. At the end of March, gas emissions were already occurring here, after which arson was carried out to neutralize the threat. In April, the gushing stopped due to the collapse of the shaft, but a weak gas inflow was observed.

The Ministry of Energy promises to continue promptly informing the public about the development of the situation.
