PolandThe article discusses an unexpected ecological impact of the war in Ukraine, highlighting how birds have built nests using remnants of fiber-optic cables left behind during military operations. These nests were discovered along the front lines near Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Zaporizhzhia. Ukrainian soldiers reported finding similar nests before, including one shared on Telegram by the 'Azov' Storm Brigade in June 2025. The National Museum of Ukrainian History in Kyiv has received two such nests, one of which will be displayed in an exhibition while the other will be sent to the Netherlands for DNA analysis to identify the bird species involved. Experts warn that these cables pose a danger to small animals like birds, bats, and small mammals, as they can become entangled and contribute to environmental pollution.
