(MENAFN- UkrinForm) A farming tractor blew up on an anti-personnel mine out in a field in the Bilozersk community, Kherson region. The driver sustained no injuries.
That's according to the regional military administration , Ukrinform reports.
"A tractor drove over an explosive in a field. As a result of the blast, the equipment was damaged. Fortunately, the man was not injured," the statement reads.
The administration recalls that large swaths of farmland across the region remain mine-contaminated so any agricultural work on the fields not surveyed and cleared by sappers puts people's lives in jeopardy.
