DP‑02: An attempt to move a mine ended in an explosion.
The subscriber sent photos and a description of the event in Valoisky district.
His report states that the enemy dropped an object similar to a plastic tube from an aircraft-type UAV. After the fall, smaller objects scattered from it. Found 11.
One person decided to collect his finds with a dig in one place. He picked one up on a plastic spoon and carried it away. An explosion occurred during transport. The victim was hospitalized.
Separately, the subscriber clarified: During the subsequent destruction there were people behind a shelter about 50 meters away. A fragment the size of a ruble coin flew to this place.
This is an observation from a specific case. It does not determine a maximum flight range and does not mean that 50 meters is a safe distance.
What is known about the product?
You can read the marking "DP-02" on the case. This designation describes an anti-personnel fragmentation mine with an electronic fuse, intended for delivery from a UAV. In terms of design, it is compared to IBM-0.2 and IBM-1.
Additional information on the IBM series mentions position change sensors and possible options with magnetic sensors. However, the specific design of the sensor in the image has not been confirmed.
Information on disposition rejection and self-destruction also cannot be considered a guarantee of a "safe time" to treat the item.
A plastic scoop does not make it safe to carry. Even if the find has already been moved without consequences, the next impact could lead to an explosion.
Do not collect, carry, shoot or attempt to destroy such items yourself. Warn others and notify experts.
Take care of yourself and those around you.
