The incident occurred on 22 April in the city of Balakliia. While driving along a forest road, the driver hit an explosive device, previously an anti-tank mine.

The police reminded that the mine danger in the de-occupied territories remains extremely high. Staying in the forests, cemeteries, fields, forest belts and other uninspected places poses a serious threat to life and health.

"If you find a dangerous object, call 101 or 102 immediately," law enforcement urged.
