Three Uzbeks blew themselves up in the Leningrad Oblast trying to saw up a shell

In the Leningrad Oblast, three men from Central Asia blew themselves up with a shell as they were trying to saw through it with an angle grinder.

According to investigations, the men wanted to take the fuses to a scrap metal place, and they tried to cut one off. “As a result, there was an explosion. These men, two in a critical condition, one in a moderately severe condition were taken to hospital”, a statement says on the Interior Ministry Headquarters for the region’s website.

Itar-Tass were told at the press office of the Interior Ministry that the victims were citizens of Uzbekistan.
