Significant physical resources are required in this direction. Thousands of calls are coming in to the hotline: 144 each day, which is a centralized contact center, same could be said about the hotline of our Ministry.

At present, this temporary technical malfunction is solved. We just have to be patient for a few days and we should have a sense of solidarity "said the Minister of Environmental Protection and Agriculture, Levan Davitashvili.
