They were found in one of the ponds after previous enemy shelling of the city and transported to a special training ground for further destruction by controlled explosion," the statement said.
The X-101 is a Russian strategic air-to-ground cruise missile using radar-avoidance technologies. It was widely used during the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
