The mayor of Pangai, Filippos Anastasiadiswith his announcement, prohibited the traffic of all agricultural vehicles and pedestrians in the rural areas of the local communities of Antiphilippi and Paleochori, in order to prevent any problems from the wreckage of the aircraft that has been thrown in a radius of several meters.
The mayor emphasized that it is deemed necessary to have this ban, as the exact number of parties is still not known aircraft scattered across the countryside nor, however, the dangerousness of the cargo which he carried.
However, the local authorities are waiting for the arrival of the special interdisciplinary Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Defense Company of the GHETHA, which will check the white dust that is scattered around the wreckage of the aircraft and will decide on its dangerousness.
Meanwhile, speaking to SKAI, the regional governor of Eastern Macedonia and Thrace, Christos Metios he said that after a meeting of the coordinating body, all appropriate actions are being initiated to determine if there are dangerous toxic substances at the place where the Antonov crashed.
As he said, in the next few hours the army and pyrotechnicians will create a clear corridor to collect the bodies, while the control for possible toxic substances will also begin, as well as the collection of ammunition.
All these procedures will be started immediately and at the end a conclusion will be reached about the possible existence of a dangerous toxic substance.
Note that it is a positive fact that there is currently no fire and smoke, which would favor the transport of toxic substances, if they exist.
He added that probably with the explosions that took place and the high temperature that prevailed, most of the munitions have exploded, however he noted that we must be sure and this will only happen if the pyrotechnicians go to the scene.
Estimating the time it will take to carry out the investigations, he said that they will probably be completed in the evening.
