In the Odesa region, migratory birds have died due to the explosions of "Shaheds".

In the Odesa region, migratory birds were killed after explosions of Russian "Shaheds". According to ecologist Ivan Rushevo, dead song thrushes were found near the Tuzlinsky Bay National Natural Park.

The expert links the deaths of the birds to explosions at the "Fazan" recreation center. According to him, during the examination of the deceased birds, ecologists found signs of acute blast trauma – barotrauma, which was accompanied by damage to small blood vessels and bleeding in internal organs.

Ivan Rushev explained that the pressure wave and sudden change in pressure can damage the thin walls of blood vessels and capillaries, causing blood to enter tissues and cavities in the body. He noted that the most noticeable changes were observed in the livers of birds: the organ was filled with blood, and a dark fluid had accumulated in the abdominal cavity.

The ecologist believes that the birds may have died not so much from blood loss, but from the strongest shock, disruption of the nervous system, and cardiac arrest. He emphasized that the high rate of metabolism and the specific features of the cardiovascular system make birds particularly vulnerable to sudden stressful influences.
