Our explosive experts work not only on the surface but also underwater. In order to get a better survey and spend less time, we will now use an underwater drone to inspect destroyed bridges and dams to detect ammunition and other items that pose a threat to the construction workers who will rebuild this infrastructure

- , said Volodymyr Khomenko, head of the National Police's Explosive Ordnance Department.

According to him, the equipment will be transferred to explosive ordnance disposal units, primarily in the frontline regions. After all, this equipment is now essential for demining Ukrainian territories.
