During the survey, the team identified 13 unexploded 85mm shells and 17 solid projectiles of the same calibre. The items were safely recovered, secured, and transported to the Special Task Team 1 storage facility.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Project Masam confirmed that the recovered war remnants will be destroyed during the project&#8217;s next demolition operation as part of its ongoing efforts to clear explosive remnants of war from affected areas and reduce the risks they pose to civilians.<\/p>\n<p>The project also renewed its appeal to the public to avoid approaching or handling suspicious objects and to report them immediately to the relevant authorities. Such cooperation, the statement emphasised, is essential to protecting lives and property and improving the safety of local communities.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<style type='text\/css'>\n\t\t\t\t#gallery-1
