Explosion in the mine. Again...

17 dead, 2 wounded and 9 disappeared miners after the explosion in the mine in "Sukhodilska-Eastern" in Luhansk region. 4 dead, 4 wounded and 7 disappeared miners after the explosion in the mine in Makiyivka, Donetsk region. Two explosions in the mines for one day. Deaths of the miners again. Sorrowfully, but such explosions often happen in the mines and the miner's profession is the most dangerous in Ukraine. Ukrainian miners very often work illegally or even in the illegal mines, called "kopanky". But even when Ukrainian miners work in the legal mine, they can work in the conditions with technical violations of the mine and practically always in the very hard conditions for human health. And Ukrainian miners usually don't have normal worked day and work over quota, getting little salary for their job. But they haven't choice to change a job, they must work for their families. So every day Ukrainian miners go to the work and don't know if they will come back home alive...
