Sixth-grade students found a German-made 50-caliber mortar mine from World War II during a labor lesson in a stream near the school in the village of Rodnykivka, in the Svalyava district of the Zakarpattia region. The schoolchildren mistook the mine for an ordinary piece of iron and began playing with it. Fortunately, a school employee was passing by and decided to see what the children were so actively doing, recognized the mine in the piece of iron - and immediately called the competent services. Fearing that there might be other mines on the territory, classes at the school were suspended until the mine was fully removed and the territory was inspected. A group of sappers from a military unit of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Ukraine from the regional center arrived at the scene, who classified the condition of the mine as extremely dangerous.
