Residents of Gagra pointed out to the authorities the unresolved problem of vandalism.

Unknown individuals broke the glass and damaged the playground equipment in the Camping area of Gagra, a local resident complained on social media. Other residents, commenting on her complaint, demanded that officials find and punish those responsible and install video surveillance.

According to a resident of Gagra, garbage and broken glass regularly accumulate at the playground in the Camping area, and part of the play equipment is damaged. Before her child can play at the playground, the resident has to clean up the garbage and broken bottles. The woman asked officials to pay attention to the condition of the playground, organize cleaning, and restore the play equipment.

The resident's complaint was published on October 10 by the Instagram*-public chp_abh, which has about 104 thousand followers. As of 14:30 MSK on October 13, this post received 499 likes and 69 comments.

Other local residents, commenting on the publication, demanded to install video surveillance and to find and punish those who damage the playground. "It's true, cameras need to be installed and that's it," wrote zibaema722.

"Video surveillance needs to be installed, as those who do this need to be punished," pointed out voitko392.

In response to the remark that there is already a webcam at the playground, voitko392 asked: "Why haven't they found it yet?"

Other residents demanded that the authorities address the condition of the playground and restore it. "At the moment, this is not a recreational area, but a survival zone: mountains of garbage, broken swings, and complete unsanitary conditions. Local children have no alternative; the other playground is also without light and full of garbage, so children are forced to stay in this emergency chaos. We are waiting for a response when everything will be brought back to a human state," wrote ah.mia.julia.

"Now we probably need to write to Gunba so they get moving," noted alhas_abh_26.

"When will the administration start doing its job?" asked alhas_abh_26.

Some participants in the discussion linked the destruction of the playground to the behavior of visitors and the lack of proper control. "A person donated it, and everyone ruined it. I remember there used to be a guard watching over it," wrote chulia_abkhazia.

"It seems like a new playground, but look at what it has become. Apparently, someone gathers there at night..." suggested 11111fer.

"We ruin everything ourselves and then complain," noted alhas_abh_26.

As of 14:30 MSK on October 13, there are no comments on the Gagra district administration's website regarding the local residents' complaint about the condition of the playground in the Camping microdistrict.

"Caucasian Knot" also reported that residents of Abkhazia have repeatedly complained about the problem of vandalism. For instance, on June 29, residents of Sukhum called for the installation of video cameras and the introduction of strict penalties after unknown individuals left inscriptions on the slabs of the city embankment.
