In the Kaliningrad region, specialists from the mine clearance groups of the separate marine engineering regiment of the Baltic Fleet destroyed more than 200 munitions from the Great Patriotic War. They were located at the bottom of the Baltic Sea in a sunken barge off the coast of the Kaliningrad region and posed a potential threat.
The shells were taken out and destroyed at one of the Baltic Fleet's training grounds by detonation with TNT blocks. The number of explosive finds from the Great Patriotic War in the Kaliningrad region traditionally increases in the spring and summer. Defusing explosive objects in areas of the region where the East Prussian offensive operation took place during the war is carried out periodically by mine clearance groups of the Baltic Fleet.
Since the beginning of the year, sappers of the Baltic Fleet have already destroyed more than 1,500 similar dangerous finds. Mostly shells and other ammunition are found when digging pits and trenches or in places of battles of the Great Patriotic War.
