Original Note:
The beach is close to Belbek military airfield. Russia said it shot down the missiles causing the debris. Under Art 58 AP1 to Geneva Conventions Russia must protect civilians by distancing them from military zones & avoiding locating military objectives near populated areas https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treaties/api-1977/article-58?activeTab=undefined https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2024/06/23/7462166/ https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@44.675723,33.5610253,5687m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu
