Quote: "At 00:01 on 1 May, an electricity pylon was blown up in the Susanino settlement in Gatchinsky District, and an unknown object, presumably an explosive device, was discovered on a second one."

Details: Drozdenko added that the supply of power to settlements and civil infrastructure had not been disrupted, and the network was automatically switched over by a substation.

The FSB and prosecutors are working at the scene.

Later, Drozdenko reported that the threat of an explosion at the second pylon had been eliminated by a bomb squad, which had removed and defused the charge with a detonator.

Now the occupiers are examining other pylons along the damaged power line.
