As a result of a mine explosion on the beach in the city of Zatoka, three people died. According to preliminary information, the explosion occurred underwater.
According to RBC Ukraine agency, the mine exploded about 50 meters from the shore on the seabed. At the time of the incident, there was one person in the water, who did not survive.
Witnesses reported that the sound of the explosion was heard over a long distance along the beach, causing panic among the vacationers. According to the police's official website, two consecutive explosions occurred, resulting in the death of one woman and two men.
Local residents and vacationers tried to assist the injured until the ambulance arrived. However, due to the strength of the explosion, some victims died at the scene.

The presence of explosive materials on the seabed poses a significant risk to tourists. The government is urging citizens not to swim outside safe areas.
