Tractor blows up on anti-personnel mine in Kherson region
That’s according to the regional military administration, Ukrinform reports.
"A tractor drove over an explosive in a field. As a result of the blast, the equipment was damaged. Fortunately, the man was not injured," the statement reads.
The administration recalls that large swaths of farmland across the region remain mine-contaminated so any agricultural work on the fields not surveyed and cleared by sappers puts people’s lives in jeopardy.
"Do not approach or touch whatever you find there under any circumstances. Move to a safe distance and inform rescuers or police," the regional administration urged residents.
As reported earlier, Kherson region remains under constant Russian shelling as almost every day, the enemy terrorizes civilians, destroys households, targets energy, gas, and other infrastructure facilities.
