Translation:

The occupiers densely mined the fields in the Zaporizhzhia region

TM-62 anti-tank mines are installed in a checkerboard pattern with an interval of just one meter from each other.

According to a quick Google, the only thing that detonates the plastic explosive in TM-62s is a shockwave, which is how the primer detonates the mine.

So something that generates shockwaves violent enough to get through their casing over a wide area might work on all the exposed mines.

It might not be as effective on mines that are buried.
