“If the bomb had exploded, the whole area would have been destroyed,” affirms, calmly, Ihor Ovcharuk, member of the emergency services of Kharkiv, the second city of Ukraine. Thursday, June 23, he proceeds, alongside a dozen colleagues, to remove a half-ton bomb that fell without exploding in an upper floor of a residential building.
This bomb was fired by Russian forces at the eastern Ukrainian city on March 19, but its removal was not possible for four long months, due to the intense shelling that punctuated daily life in the city. .
