[ColonelCassad] An explosion in the expert center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine in Kyiv thundered when its employees tried to disassemble the missile warhead. This writes "Strana.ua" with reference to sources in law enforcement. According to him, the detonation of the warhead of the air-to-air missile occurred as a result of a violation of security measures by the experts of the center: they started sawing it with a grinder and hitting it with a hammer. As a result of the detonation, four experts were killed, the facade of the scientific center, a residential building, a hostel and two service cars were damaged. On the eve of the mayor of Kyiv Vitali Klitschko reported explosions in the vicinity of the Ukrainian capital. According to him, several explosions took place near the ring road, in the industrial zone, which is on the balance sheet of the region. There was a fire. Later, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine stated that the fire had arisen after an explosion on the territory of the forensic center of the department. They stressed that the explosion was not the result of an air strike. Who survived after hammer blows on the missile warhead "air-to-air", that and the expert. I immediately remembered domestic clowns who caught a German naval mine in Sevastopol and tried to cut it with a grinder in a garage on Severnaya. As a result, one of them had his head blown off. By Ukrainian standards - an expert. |
