Quote: "The Russians have been mining all the temporarily occupied territories.

In particular, on the night of 18 April, the occupiers laid mines in the fields, plantations and dirt roads along the Kherson-Snihurivka highway (the section between Naddniprianske and Oleksandrivka).

Details: There are also reports that in the Velykoburlutskyi district in the Kharkiv region, the locals are only allowed to pass through on Russian territory. All other minor roads, including dirt roads, have been comprehensively mined.

According to the Russian occupying forces, this is being done in order to prevent volunteer vehicles and "Ukrainian sabotage and reconnaissance groups" from driving through.

The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine reported that the Russians have been mining roads, fields, forests and cemeteries in the occupied territories.
