Checking out Russian bunkers and fighting positions which was home to over 2500 Russian soldiers for a month. The local villagers wanted us to see how vast the fighting positions were and said that we would need two full days to fully see everything in its entirety. These positions were used for the assault on Bucha and Irpin.
Ukraine Update 031. UXO’s and mines threats the civilian population of Ukraine face as Russians leave.
There are so many UXO’s that litter the areas and villages which the Russians occupied. This is an extreme hazard for the civilian population and the demining/UXO disposal operations that will need to take place to make these areas safe again for the villagers will be a long dangerous process.
