Looks like that military base dumped something yellow and very toxic into the river (or some other organization, but we only hear of the military base being in the area).

I wonder what kind of chemicals fit that profile?

It's nice to live in a country where doing that means lawsuits and jail time usually. I doubt there will be justice in this case.

What country do you live in? In mine, the good ol' USA, captured regulators just make it all legal. See fracking, for example.

It’s legal to dump industrial diesel into rivers in the USA?
