Impressive video of the toxic gas leak covering a part of Moscow


Impressive video of the toxic gas leak covering a part of Moscow (Kozhukhovo). Authorities in Moscow have urged residents in parts of the capital to stay indoors after a noxious gas was reportedly spreading through the city. According to media reports, the gas is hydrogen sulphide, which can be highly toxic and smells like rotten eggs. Experts say exposure to even small concentrations of hydrogen sulphide can cause headaches, dizziness and nausea. The smell has been detected in the south, east, and south-eastern part of the Russian capital. The gas has also been detected in Moscow's main shopping areas and around the parliament building, according to reports. No source has yet been revealed of the gas leak, however, Interfax has reported that Russia's emergency ministry has placed the blame on a Moscow oil refinery. Owner of the refinery, Gazprom Neft, has denied any accidents on site, and no accidents have been reported at any other chemical factory.
