They damaged more than 70 homes and other buildings in the village and surrounding villages, nearly 30 thousands of inhabitants of the area had to evacuate to other localities. The explosions lasted for about a week, then rescuers engaged in mine clearance.
And just recently, local residents of the village of Bykovka (located 16 km from Arsenal) again began to prepare for evacuation. “On the horizon in the direction of Kalinovka appeared to glow. We got scared — thought it was a new PE Arsenal. Quickly began to prepare to evacuate, along the way, found out by phone what had happened. It turned out that it’s some kind of doctrine, not explosions. Calmed down, unpacked, at the end of it. By the way, the neighbors said that the fields still find shells. They are protected by special ribbons and, apparently, the lifeguards will remove them soon (the rescuers say that mine action continues. — Ed.)”, — told us one of the residents of the village of Bykovka.
