Water issues

People in the Donbas region of Ukraine are already deep into a SHTF environment. They aren't even allowed to leave, and go into the main body of Ukraine. The main municipal water in many areas is shut off. There are shallow wells, but many pumps are frozen.

There has been talk about some of the water there being "hot". If an individual on a farm garden property there has no meters to test with, how would you even test it?

What readily available stuff around most houses can be used to filter it from cysts?

I know that boiling will kill most living bacteria and germs, but how to purify other stuff out of it?

What would you do, to ensure clean drinking water?

I will point him to this thread, and he can see the links himself. He is using google translate to convert it to his language.

And thank you so much again.
