According to the chief of the Nikopol District Military Administration Yevgeny Yevtushenko, the enemy uses ammunition with flashties who can cause as much harm to peaceful population as much as possible. This time the shells damaged the school. Russian invaders do not stop firing the Nikopol district in Dnipropetrovsk region. This time the settlements were attacked by unusual ammunition with flasht. The head of the district military administration Yevgeny Yevtushenko told this in his Telegram.

According to him, the enemy troops were struck on the settlements of the Marganets community from the barrel artillery. Many shells hit the school. "This is not the first such shelling - Illinka and Good Hope are suffering from armed aggression almost daily. Unfortunately, the school has suffered significant destruction, fortunately - people were not injured," Yevgeny Yevtushenko wrote. Separately, he paid attention to the weapons used by the Russians to attack the region.

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation used ammunition with flasht. These are artillery shells that contain from 7 to 9 thousand small and sharp arrows that can cause serious injuries and kill people. The number of arrows depends on the caliber. In the published frames you can see what these shells look like. They were discovered by a local resident. "When firing a settlement where civilians live, the invaders used ammunition designed for the maximum damage to people.

This is not the first use of flashties - in two years of shelling, residents of almost all coastal settlements found similar darts on the streets, in fences, roofs and vehicles. " , - summed up Yevgeny Yevtushenko. Russian invaders have long used this type of weapons. Back in May 2022, the State Border Service wrote that the Russians attacked the border of Sumy region with artillery shells that were filled with flasht.

"The steel rods of Russian shells damaged the buildings and property of residents in the Shostka district. It is worth noting that the same combat elements of forensic experts were found in the bodies of peaceful Ukrainians, which the Russians killed in Bucha and Irpen," the message said. Flashtaine is a small-sized metal arrow that is designed to defeat. They first appeared in France during the First World War.

Most often, Russian invaders use artillery ammunition from 122-mm 3sh1 "Paluusta-1" and 152 mm 3sh2 "Lepests-2", reads in the material. Each of them is capable of throwing 7 or 9 thousand flashted, respectively, and they work the shells in the air. We will remind, on July 15 Focus reported how Ukrainians live under fire in Nikopol.
