On Wednesday, March 29, a mine blew up a car carrying three men and a 16-year-old boy in the Kharkiv region near the village of Barvinkove. 

This was reported by the head of Kharkiv OVA Oleg Sinegubov. 

The tragedy happened on a field road.

There, a civilian car blew up on an anti-tank mine.

A 16-year-old boy and a 34-year-old man died at the scene.

Two more men, aged 20 and 24, were injured and hospitalized.

"Once again, I appeal to everyone! Do not move on unknown or untested roads. Do not visit forests, forest strips, fields, rivers. Do not touch suspicious objects. This is very dangerous and can cost lives," Sinegubov wrote. 

Mine danger in Ukraine

Due to Russian aggression, a large territory of Ukraine is still mined.

The British TV channel Sky News, referring to the calculations of experts, believes that Ukraine is currently the most mined country on the planet.

Because of this, Ukrainians are urged not to walk on unknown paths and to look below their feet.

The Russian occupiers mercilessly mine Ukrainian territory during retreats in order to kill as many people as possible even after their departure. 

Therefore, on February 12, near the village of Novoraysk in the Kherson region, a car carrying two men was blown up by a land mine, killing people.

Similar cases occur in Kharkiv Oblast, Kyiv Oblast, Chernihiv Oblast and other regions where there were Russian occupiers.
