"The enemy is literally planting mines in the cities he once occupied. This is due to the relative cheapness, simplicity and efficiency of use and the fact that they can cause significant losses of manpower. Unguided minefields and grenades on stretchers are left behind even in apartments and houses. First of all, these mines kill civilians. But civilians are also a goal for the Russian troops," said the First Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs.

Eugene Yenin stressed that the maximum possible number of SES pyrotechnics is used every day to demine large areas and objects contaminated with explosive devices.

"In order to speed up the cleansing of settlements and territories from deadly objects, the issues of involving demining specialists from the Danish Refugee Council, UNDP, the non-governmental British-American charity (HALO Trust), MAG and other international and non-governmental organizations are being considered."
