Surrogate alcohol has killed at least 30 people in western Russia's Sverdlovsk region, reported Xinhua, quoting TASS news agency on Tuesday.
TASS said, citing a source, that the Russian authorities are working to uncover new distribution channels for counterfeit alcohol in the Urals.
Earlier this month, surrogate alcohol poisoned 64 people in western Russia's Orenburg region, killing 32 of them.
Methanol poisoning has long plagued the country, despite government campaign against counterfeit alcohol.
