A landmine hit a fishing net near Turkey’s Ereğli port in Zonguldak province on the Black Sea, Habertürk TV reported.
The fishermen found a round object in the nets, and when they brought it to the shore, they realised it was a mine. They notified the coastguard of the discovery.
Divers from Istanbul came to the port and helped to extract the mine to the shore, now it should be taken to a special site for controlled detonation.
Earlier it was reported that a Panama-flagged bulk carrier exploded on a mine in the Black Sea.
