Low-quality mines were detected among Ukrainian defenders at the front line. Currently, more than 100 thousand units are being withdrawn.

Journalist Yuriy Butusov told about this on the YouTube channel.

"The President said that 2.5 million artillery and mortar rounds were produced according to the 2024 plan. So, among them, about 1 million 900 thousand should be mortar rounds. We can see the quality now, this is sabotage," Butusov said.

He noted that he first published information about these mines on November 6, after which commissions, inspections, official investigations and serious bureaucratic work began. Some mines were removed, but new ones were not given, so the journalist shot and showed a video with evidence of poor-quality ammunition again.

"And now I want to talk about the result. More than 100 thousand mines are withdrawn. Only in November, mines had to be removed from seven brigades, where massive mine failures occurred," he specified.

According to Butusov, there was no explanation of what to do with such mines. The military tried to save them on their own: drain the powder, etc. However, the mines still demonstrate their inaccuracy and unreliability.

Let us recall that the countries of the International Drone Coalition will allocate 1.8 billion euros to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine by the end of the year.

Le Monde also wrote that France and the UK are discussing options for supporting Ukraine in the war against Russia. In particular, this concerns the dispatch of military personnel.
