Sappers from the State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES) have removed the remains of a Russian missile with its warhead, discovered by agricultural workers in a field in the Kyiv region.

According to the SES, the missile debris was discovered in the village of Kalyta, Brovary district, during the sunflower harvest, when farm workers came across it in the field.

Specialists from the Mobile Rapid Response Rescue Center of the SES used a PM-V heavy pyrotechnic vehicle to safely extract the remains of the Kh-69 missile, which still contained its warhead.
