Soldiers of the Azov Support Force Battalion of the 12th Brigade found an abandoned nest, which the birds had built using fiber optics along with natural materials.
The defenders posted a photo of their unusual find on the brigade's Telegram channel.
Such a non-trivial bird's creation, which mixes natural and artificial materials, was discovered in the Toretsk sector.
The birds used the fiber optic fragments for their own needs before humans.
