It was reported that #Russian Forces have left behind various explosives in #Kyiv Oblast. Photos of the alleged booby traps show F-1 & RGD-5 hand grenades with UZRGM fuzes and a PG-7V derivative rocket/motor with "MUV-4" hydraulic delay firing fuze. To the best of our knowledge based on images and or video from source these are F-1 and RGD-5 hand grenades, SM signal mine with what seems to be a plastic cased version of the MUV, as well as an improvised anti-personnel fragmentation mine.
