The long dark in Vorkuta. Part 2.

Опис:

Vorkuta is a coal‑mining town, situated in the northeast of European Russia, just north of the Arctic Circle. With its satellite towns, Vorkuta forms the so‑called Vorkuta Ring or Vorkuta Circle, which included such towns as Severny, Tsementnozavodsky, Yur‑Shor, Promyshlenny, Vorgashor, Komsomolsky, Mulda, Zapolyarny, Oktyabrsky, Sovetsky and others. Their population was employed in coal mines and other industrial and military facilities. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, many mines were closed due to accidents and high operating costs and people began to move to other regions. The towns of the Vorkuta ring became partially or completely abandoned, some were demolished.
