Drone debris = explosive hazard
A downed drone is not a “war souvenir.” It can be as dangerous as a mine that has not yet detonated.
SGS emphasizes: parts of unmanned aerial vehicles may remain deadly even after falling to the ground. What looks like “scrap metal” can explode if touched, moved, or transported.
In the Sumy region, two men were killed after loading drone fragments into their vehicle. One of the fragments detonated.
War changes the rules of safety. Today, the danger is not only mines hidden in the ground, but also debris scattered on roads, in yards, fields, or along roadsides after attacks.
⚠️ If you see drone parts or unknown debris after a strike: Do not approach. Do not touch. Do not take it “as a souvenir.” Do not try to check whether it is “safe.”
The safety rules are always the same:Do not approach. Do not touch. Call emergency services.📞 101 • 102 • 112
