Only toxicologists are reacting. They say cyanide is one of the deadliest poisons. It affects cellular respiration, meaning it prevents oxygen exchange from entering the cells, thereby killing the cells. Since it is in the water, it will affect all living organisms in the river, which is an ecological catastrophe.

The latest warning comes from the SOS Ohrid organization, which alerts that despite reactions from international bodies, the state is taking no action. In a statement to the media, activists remind that the Reactive Monitoring Mission of UNESCO, which visited Ohrid in March 2024, registered new construction on Gorica Hill. This involves the construction of a hotel complex, without prior notification to the World Heritage Centre, which constitutes a direct violation of Paragraph 172 of the operational guidelines of the World Heritage Convention.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>SCPC: Institutions with <a href=\"https:\/\/telma.com.mk\/2025\/03\/26\/dksk-institucziite-so-nizok-integritet\/\">low integrity<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 In the interest of objectivity and assessing achievements, the State Commission for Prevention of Corruption (SCPC) presented the ranking list of the most successful and highest-ranked institutions based on the implementation of the integrity system. At the top, the State Audit Office ranked highest with 82%, followed by the Court in Kavadarci with 65%, while the Civil Court in Skopje received a low score of 20%. In the anti-corruption investigation, the main flaws identified include the lack of internal acts on conflict of interest \u2013 missing in half of the state institutions, and the same percentage does not have regulations for receiving gifts and hospitality. There is also an absence of integrity training and low certification in ISO standards.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u201cLIGHT\u201d OCCURRENCES FOR MARCH 2025<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Civil organizations demand a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dw.com\/mk\/po-tragedijata-vo-kocani-graganski-organizacii-baraat-transparentna-istraga-i-reforma-na-kaznenata-politika\/a-72070591?maca=maz-rss-maz-pol_makedonija_timemk-4727-xml-mrss\">transparent investigation<\/a> into the Ko\u010dani fire<\/strong> \u2013 Civil organizations fighting corruption are calling for a transparent investigation into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dw.com\/mk\/tragedija-vo-kocani\/t-71942138\">fire in Ko\u010dani<\/a> and a reform of the criminal policy.
