Police neutralize three enemy drones in Dnipro region

According to Ukrinform, the National Police reported this on Facebook.

"Police officers were on their way to the scene of the shelling in the Marhanets community, where two children were injured when a Russian drone hit a civilian car. The enemy drone that was chasing the police car hit the tops of trees, and the dangerous plastid cargo did not explode. Later, it was neutralized by the National Police explosives experts," the statement said.

The National Police noted that residents of the Nikopol district of Dnipropetrovs'k region suffer daily from heavy shelling by the Russian army. The invaders attack civilians with artillery, missiles and drones.

In just one day, there are about 20 attacks by Russians using FPV drones with explosive devices on board.

Among the enemy's priority targets are police crews that ensure law and order, help people and document Russia's war crimes.

"Such explosive devices are the most dangerous and unstable and can go off at any time, even from the wind, so explosive teams in the area defuse them almost every day, and sometimes several a day," said Dmytro Karakurkchi, deputy head of the Explosive Service Department of the National Police of Ukraine.

On that day, police destroyed two more Russian drones with improvised explosive devices that had crashed in Marhanets and Nikopol. The kamikaze drone that arrived in Nikopol in the morning crashed. It was carrying about 1.5 kg of plastid, which did not explode.

Since the beginning of the full-scale war, the specialists of the police explosive service have thoroughly studied all the enemy's mine traps and confidently neutralize them.

As Ukrinform reported, on January 23, the Russian army carried out three attacks on rescuers - they hit people, cars and fire stations. One firefighter was injured.
