KRMA: National Operator UDS demines Kyiv Region

The official website of the Kyiv Regional Military Administration (KRMA) reported that UDS has completed a free non-technical survey (NTS) of particularly valuable lands of the Institute of Potato Growing which is part of the National Academy of Agrarian Sciences with a total area of 500 hectares. As a result, evidence of the presence of tripwires and PMN-2 anti-personnel mines was found on the sites.

As a result of the survey, the land plot was classified as a "contaminated area" and a "minefield" requiring humanitarian demining services.

Currently, sappers of the UDS are conducting a survey and demining process. UDS specialists are currently working on an area of approximately 10 hectares. Sappers are working using special machines and mechanisms. In particular, two special Bozena 5+ demining machines and three sapper teams are involved.
