[Regnum] Deputy Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Mikhail Popov said that a powerful storm in the Black Sea at the end of November could have scattered the anchor mines that Kiev militants had installed. This poses a danger to civilian ships, which are being undermined one after another. Popov told KP.RU about this. “The storm tore the nets of booms and, most likely, scattered the minefields laid by the Ukrainian military ,” said Mikhail Popov, adding that during the SVO, several foreign ships, including Ukrainian ones, were blown up by mines. Military experts from Russia, Georgia, and Turkey agreed that this “horned death” in the Black Sea region could only come from the direction of Ukraine. According to Mikhail Popov, the United States and Ukraine are silent about the fact that their actions have turned the Black Sea basin into an extremely dangerous region for shipping for many years. “This, of course, will have a negative impact on the economy of all the Black Sea states,” concluded the Deputy Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation. As reported by IA Regnum , the strongest storm that hit the Crimean peninsula may repeat itself several more times before the end of the 21st century, since as a result of climate change, dangerous weather phenomena are being observed more and more often. This forecast was made on November 29 by climatologist Alexey Kokorin. Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers were blown up by their own mines when they entered an unmarked minefield near the town of Kremennaya. Three of the group that arrived at the Krasnolimansk direction on rotation received mine-explosive injuries of varying severity. When one of them died, the others abandoned him not far from the explosion site. |
