  "textContent": "Paul Goble\n\nStaunton, June 30 – Media attention to Ukrainian drone attacks on Russia and Russian drone attacks on Ukraine have largely focused on their immediate impact, explosions, fires, and the killing and wounding of people; but they have longer term consequences as well because drones from the two countries are laying mines in unexpected places.\n\nThat danger has been pointed out by a Russian military analyst speaking on condition of anonymity of _Novaya Gazeta Europe_ who says that will affect residents for many years by making demining efforts even more difficult than they already are (novayagazeta.eu/articles/2026/06/30/my-dolgoe-ekho-drug-druga).\n\nAnd cleaning up mines laid during the conflict will take years if not decades because maps of mines laid are notoriously unreliable – too many different military units are involved – and mean that even more Russians and Ukrainians will be injured or killed when they unwittingly step on mines laid earlier.",
