Sappers of Kherson region receive mobile vehicle workshops

15 mobile vehicle workshops have been delivered to the SES units.

This was reported by the press service of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine in Kherson region.

The post says that these motor transport workshops, designed to repair mechanized demining machines that perform tasks in the de-occupied territories, are equipped with the most necessary tools.

"These vehicles have already proven their efficiency. Rescuers are actually repairing the equipment on the spot. Previously, it took time to return to the unit, repair the vehicle and return to the place of work," said Vitaliy Myronyuk, First Deputy Head of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.

It is noted that the special IVECO vehicles were purchased at the expense of the members of the All-Ukrainian Agrarian Council, and the tools and equipment were donated by His Highness Prince Ludwig of Bavaria and Count Hubertus Nesselrod.

The press service added that in total, the SES already has 33 such vehicles in its operational fleet.

Earlier it was reported that the SES sappers were working near one of the settlements of the liberated part of the region. It is noted that the survey was carried out using a mechanized demining machine. During the work, one explosive object was found. Another such object got under the working body of the machine and detonated.
