Quote from Kozytskyi: “We found the wreckage of a missile that did not detonate in one of the villages of Mykolaiv hromada in Stryi district, in a field, 400 metres from residential buildings. This is the missile that was shot down by our air defence forces. Bomb disposal experts have arrived at the scene. 

I urge you: if you come across such a ‘finding’, do not approach it, let alone touch it. The wreckage can be deadly. In such cases, call the police immediately at 102.”

Details: Earlier, Kozytskyi reported that air defence forces shot down one missile in Stryi district, with no casualties or damage to facilities.
