On October 25, 3 FAB bombs that did not reach their targets in Ukraine were found in the Belgorod and Shebekinsky districts of the Belgorod region. The bombs fell near the house and did not detonate, people were not evacuated.
The next day, an unexploded FAB was found in a vegetable garden near Vygonaya Street [the approximate crash site is marked on an archival satellite image attached to the news] in the village of Streletskoye, about 20 kilometers from Belgorod, ASTRA learned. While the shell was not cleared, 47 people were evacuated from 14 nearby houses (most of them went to their relatives).
In total, there are 137 accidental bombs that fell in Russia and in the territories of Ukraine controlled by Russia until 2024. Most often, FAB-250 and FAB-500 fall. Usually, during an emergency gathering, they do not explode — the shells are destroyed by explosives technicians after the fact. Such adjustable aerial bombs are used for attacks, in particular, on Donetsk and the Kharkiv region – as well as the city of Kharkiv.
