Man was carrying an interceptor missile in a train in Dnipro region

In the Dnipro region, a man was carrying an object similar to an interceptor missile in a suburban train, which he said he had found while fishing. The incident was reported by Ukrmedia News.

Details of the incident

According to preliminary information, the dangerous find was discovered near the village of Kalynivka. Instead of immediately calling the emergency services, the man took the object with him and went by train to Vilnohirsk.

At the station, he put the rocket on the fence and only then called the police 101 and 102.

As of now, there are no official comments from law enforcement or rescuers on the incident.

Potential hazards

Experts have repeatedly stressed that any suspicious munitions or their fragments can remain explosive even after falling.

In such cases, citizens are advised:

• do not touch the find,

• move to a safe distance,

• immediately inform the rescuers or the police.

Context.

After massive air attacks, the wreckage of missiles and drones is periodically found on the territory of Ukraine. Rescuers regularly urge people not to transport or disassemble such items due to the high risk of detonation.
