Odesa region, three Ukrainians died in the mine explosion, and many others were injured. Ukrainian authorities said that this beach was not allowed for swimming and playing, and the public entered illegally. However, the people on the beach said that Ukrainian authorities had never prevented people from entering this resort area, nor had they set up any warning signs.

The mine washed ashore was a Soviet anchor mine, which is fixed by an anchor chain. However, after being laid for three years without maintenance, the anchor chain broke and was washed ashore. The old Soviet-style antennae may have been directly detonated due to factors such as wave impact, sand and stone friction, or human stepping when it ran aground.
