On Sunday, October 2, in the Chernihiv region, a car with people in the cabin ran into a mine, after which an explosion occurred. Four people died. They were residents of the area. This was announced by the head of the Chernihiv OVA Vyacheslav Chaus.

A car with four civilians stumbled upon a mine in the forest near Shestovitsa. All have died, the statement said.

According to Chaus, people ignored the warning signs, as well as a temporary ban on visiting the forests, and drove into an area that was listed as likely to be mined.

Once again, I emphasize: express demining has been carried out in the region (fields, houses, roadsides near highways), while continuous demining will take years, - Chaus added.
