It is formed by the confluence of two streams, the Black Tisza and the White Tisza, in the Carpathian Mountains of Ukraine. It winds 1,287 km (800 mi) north-east, south-west, and finally south, joining the Danube in northern Serbia after running parallel to it for 483 km (300 mi). In February 2000 the waters of the river were contaminated by a cyanide spill from a mine in Romania—all life in the river was destroyed. The river was formerly famous for its fish.
