On November 27, 21 miners of the Buzhanskaya mine went on strike. The miners of the third and the fourths shifts remained underground. The protest started after salary was not paid.

“The Buzhanskaya miners were not paid August salary in full, and only 10% for September, with nothing for October”, the chairman of the Independent Miners Union of Ukraine Mikhail Volynets reported.

According to him, the second shift miners last time received food on Sunday. The situation is aggravated by the fact that both the minister of energy and coal industry and the Volynugol CEO are on vocation.

The miners demand firing of the CEO, clearing of debts, etc. (Ukrainian metal)
