File photoDONETSK, Aug 13 A civilian was wounded in the Kuibyshevsky district of Donetsk when a PFM-1 «Lepestok» anti-personnel mine went off, the DPR defense headquarters said. A woman born in 1965 stepped on a prohibited anti-personnel mine PFM-1 «Petal» by the criminals,» a message on the Headquarters' Telegram channel says. . It is installed on the ground by remote means of mining. A special insidiousness of a mine for civilians is that, due to its unusual shape, people who are not familiar with this mine may not recognize it as a dangerous object. The mine is almost an exact copy of the American mine BLU-43/B (Dragontooth). The DPR representative office in the Joint Center for Control and Coordination of the Ceasefire has repeatedly recorded the use of cluster munitions equipped with mines «Petal» by Ukrainian troops in the cities of the republic.
«This is just the beginning.» How Zelensky is pushing Europe towards Nazism The Permanent Mission of the Russian Federation to the UN previously circulated a letter in the Security Council about the use of anti-personnel mines «Petal» by Kyiv against the civilian population in the Donbass. The letter was also sent to the UN Secretary General. In 2005, Ukraine ratified the Ottawa Convention, which prohibits the use, stockpiling and production of anti-personnel mines. Thus, Kyiv violates its international obligations.
