Despite the ritual, after a day and a half, the neighborhoods closest to the hydraulic structure disappeared under water.

In the city of Orsk (Russian Federation), where a large-scale man-made disaster occurred due to a dam break , a priest was invited a few days before to hold a prayer service near the protective structure. NEXTA reports this .

It is noted that residents of Orsk, a few days before the dam burst, noticed that water was oozing from under the structure, after which they invited the priest to hold a prayer service, hoping to avoid flooding.

“Apparently, this is how the authorities were going to solve this problem,” the message says.

The released video shows that people have gathered in a dangerous place, and a prayer can be heard, the words of which are pronounced by a priest.

According to The Moscow Times , despite the ritual, a day and a half after the prayer service, the neighborhoods closest to the hydraulic structure disappeared under water.

“The townspeople also reported the danger to local authorities and tried to solve the problem on their own – they tried to fill up the leak with soil brought on a tractor. On April 4, the mayor of the city, Vasily Kozupitsa, came to the site, who personally inspected the dam and stated based on the results that it would withstand the load “that will come here.” “, writes the media.

  1. Well, that was a priest of that FSB-church, right? God answered that with a clear showing of his disapproval. ⛈

  2. “It is noted that residents of Orsk, a few days before the dam burst, noticed that water was oozing from under the structure, after which they invited the priest to hold a prayer service, hoping to avoid flooding.”

    Gather up all the priests, and plug the hole in the dam with them. It will be a more practical solution than saying a prayer.
