Bervytsya (Бервиця). By Peter Smith. The success of the Ukrainian army in driving Russian troops out of other areas they had taken doesn’t mean the Russian threat is completely over, as ITV News Correspondent Peter Smith reports. Additional newsgathering by ITV News Foreign Affairs News Editor Lutfi Abu Aun, cameraman Mark Nelson, cameraman Eugene Campbell and producer Andriy Glushko. Wherever there were Russian troops in Ukraine, there remains a threat from deadly weapons left in their wake. Thousands of landmines and unexploded bombs are scattered around the towns and villages that were recently occupied. Our team here went out with Ukrainian bomb disposal experts trying to clear the village of Bervytsya, west of Kyiv. They’ve isolated an area about 70 square metres – a former Russian ammunition hub that was destroyed in fighting. This one location will take a week to make safe again. And there are many, many more like it. “Our units alone have already disposed of 15,000 explosive objects,” Colonel Anatoly Vrublevsky tells me. He’s part of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine. We see artillery ammunition, cluster elements, rockets, and hand grenades collected.
