Ukraine's Mariupol to be without hot water for 6 months
The city in Ukraine's separatist east, Mariupol, has been forced to extend the suspension of its hot water supply imposed on April 1 until at least mid-October due to the debt accumulated by municipal utility services. Notably, Mariupol, the 10th most populous city in the country, is home to 4.6 lakh people and has been repeatedly targeted by pro-Russia insurgents.
