As reported by the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Ukraine in the city of Kovel, as of 14:00, all 7 bombs from the Second World War years have been raised from the bottom of the Turiya River, including a FAB-250. 5 FAB-100 bombs have already been neutralized. The last FAB-100 bomb and the FAB-250 bomb remain to be transported and neutralized. Until recently, it was unknown what to do with the largest and most powerful bomb, the FAB-250, which has two fuses in a cocked combat state. However, according to representatives of the civil defense headquarters, specialists made a fundamental decision to raise it rather than neutralize it on site. As reported by the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Ukraine in the city of Kovel, it was decided to transport and neutralize the last FAB-100 bomb and the FAB-250 bomb still today. As local media report, the work on raising the bombs might never have begun. The city authorities of Kovel could not find a qualified crane operator for a long time who would agree to work in particularly dangerous conditions. Crane operator Stepan Ustymuk gave his consent. As reported by the first deputy mayor of Kovel, Volodymyr Litvinchuk, the man will receive a reward of 5 thousand hryvnias for the work. In addition, his life and health are insured for the sum of 100 thousand hryvnias. As previously reported, on May 13, an amateur diver found 7 Soviet aerial bombs at the bottom of the Turiya River in Kovel - 6 FAB-100 bombs and one FAB-250. The latter is the largest and most powerful, weighs about three hundred kilograms and has two fuses in a cocked combat state.
All 7 bombs have been lifted in Kovel. Two more remain to be eliminated
