The Naval Forces reported that there may be about four hundred mines in the Black Sea. This was stated by the spokesperson of the Navy, Captain 3rd rank Dmytro Pletenchuk, during a telethon.
“The last official figure was four hundred mines, but precise data cannot be provided until a full-scale demining operation is conducted,” Pletenchuk said.
Pletenchuk also noted that the location of the mines may change due to the nature of the marine elements. To clean the area after the hostilities are completed, the Navy created a special division that includes mine-clearing ships.
