STORYLINE:
Ukrainian military forces on Monday performed controlled explosions on long-range mines dropped by Russian troops on the city of Kharkiv.
Set on a timer a mine can explode at any moment.
Rescue workers, demolition squads and police cordoned off the neighbourhood while they detonated the mines.
Each green tube about the size of a litre of soda is packed with three pounds of explosives.
The United States last used scatterable land mines during Operation Desert Storm in 1991.
By 1997 scatterable anti-personnel mines had largely been banned by 164 nations, including Ukraine.
