According to the authorities, among the dead was 17-year-old Nikita, a local resident. He had taken the “bell” (the so-called submunition of a cluster artillery shell).
“I twisted and twisted, it exploded, his hands were torn off, his face was cut. They buried him,” said a local resident.
It was reported earlier that Novogrodovka was liberated by units of the Centre group of troops.
Now the enemy is actively shelling the populated area with artillery. Submunitions litter the streets. They are shaped like a bell with a ribbon. Local residents did not know that it was dangerous to pick up such an object. And they died from the explosion.
