Yesterday, August 24, a mobile group of explosives experts visited the location of the find. This was reported by the press service of the Sumy region police.

The man told law enforcement officers that he saw a white object in the forest that looked like a bag from afar, and thought that one of his fellow villagers had become impudent and had taken the garbage into the forest. But when I came closer, I realized that there was some kind of large shell lying on the ground,” the report says.

Police sappers, having examined the discovered object, concluded that it was the warhead of the Russian X-59 aircraft cruise missile. Her weight is about 300 kg.

Apparently the missile did not reach where the Russians were aiming due to a technical malfunction, or it fell because it was damaged by Ukrainian air defense forces. The warhead will soon be destroyed at a special training ground,” noted Igor Chernyak, head of the explosion-technical service of the Main Directorate for Civil Aviation in the Sumy region.
