Soviet-era bombs uncovered in Slavian district's cemetery by gravediggers.
In the quaint town of Slaviansk-on-Kuban, an unexpected find sent a wave through the community. While digging a grave, workers stumbled upon a hidden treasure of sorts—39 World War II-era aircraft bombs. A chance strike with a shovel unearthed the first munition, leading to a shocking discovery.
The Rosgvardiya experts identified the mysterious find as FAB-2.5 aircraft bombs, a holdover from the Great Conflict. Upon further investigation, more of these relics were uncovered—38 Additional munitions, weighed anywhere between 10 to 50 kilograms, were carefully extracted from the ground.
Residents were advised to stay indoors as a precaution, due to the discovery of a bomb in Novorossiysk, as previously reported by "Живая Кубань". These mysterious relics were safely transported to a distance away from residential buildings and detonated.
While this intriguing event does not seem to have made much of a historical splash, it's important to note that such discoveries can have far-reaching implications for local communities.
