He said this on the Espreso TV channel.
"Yesterday, at a meeting of a number of agencies, it was announced that after the demining of ammunition, it is possible to reuse this explosive to create new ammunition. This approach exists, but I believe that in this case it will satisfy the minimum needs of the Ukrainian army. Indeed, we can talk about it, but now we have to ensure our own production of TNT, not just the TNT that can be removed from ammunition that will be found during demining," explained Zgurets.
According to the military expert, the use of explosives after demining is an extremely complicated and dangerous process that involves technological issues announced by the Ministry of Defense.
"Although there are certain areas, in particular for equipping anti-tank mines, where there are no special requirements for explosives. And the safest bombs that will be found can be used for this purpose. But this is an additional, not a central process of expanding our ammunition production line," Zgurets added.
