Russia is waging war against Ukraine with antiquated weapons that have modern components and timers. “We have repeatedly said that the Russians have been using cluster munitions of Soviet times, but at the same time we see that these munitions have modern fins, they contain photocells and delay elements. There is a huge amount of shrapnel inside such munitions, there may be 400 and 500,” First Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Yevheniy Yenin said during the nationwide news telethon, the Ministry posted on Telegram.
He claimed that shrapnel may pierce even concrete and metal, not to mention human flesh. Within a 50 metre radius, there is virtually little chance of survival.
“In Mykolayiv city, when our sapper began to deal with such munition, he was at a distance of 1-1.5 meters and not just one munition, but four of them detonated as the timer worked,” Yenin added.
Approximately 140,000 explosive devices, including 1,994 aerial bombs, were discovered and neutralised by the pyrotechnic units of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine between the start of the main conflict and June 21.
