Russia uses “shaheeds” that scatter explosives. The objects detonate after a certain time

The ammunition looks like a black oblong stick, and the time of its potential detonation is unknown.

Russian troops have begun using drones that scatter explosive objects while flying over a certain territory, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine reported. In particular, such objects were found after the UAV attack in Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Sumy regions.

“They can be used by the Russian Federation to strike any region of the country. The risk is extremely high also because the time of explosion of such ammunition is unknown,” the Ministry of Internal Affairs emphasized.

“Look carefully at the photo — this is what these explosive objects may look like. Be sure to warn your loved ones. If you see a suspicious object, do not approach it, do not touch it,” the department urges.

Explosive elements dropped by drones detonate some time after falling to the ground. The ammunition itself looks like a black, elongated stick.
