In Kharkiv Oblast, sappers of the State Emergency Service destroyed an unexploded aerial bomb

The day before, the Russians once again carried out a cynical attack on the peaceful village of Velikiy Burluk, Kupyan district.

One of the guided aerial bombs fell on a private yard, causing damage to the outbuildings, but, fortunately, did not explode.

Sappers of the State Emergency Service identified the unexploded ammunition as KAB-250, removed it and destroyed it on a specially prepared site outside the settlement in compliance with safety regulations.

It's scary to even imagine the scale of the tragedy if this 250-kilogram heap of metal exploded.
