Quote: "The danger is increasing because of the storm in the Black Sea, and there is a high probability that naval mines will be dislodged from their anchors and drift ashore, as well as drift along the coast.

Once again, I am drawing the attention of Odesa residents and guests of the region to the fact that the danger of being in coastal areas is too high."

Background: The waves threw a Russian naval mine onshore near Odesa during a storm in late March.
