French fishing nets find new purpose on Ukraine’s front lines

ROSCOFF, France: Once used to scoop fish from the sea off the coast of France, recycled fishing nets are finding new life in Ukraine to protect the country’s roads and military infrastructure from Russian drone attacks. “It smells like rotten fish,” joked Christian Abaziou, 70, as he picked up a piece of used netting at Roscoff port in western Brittany’s Finistere department. He and his fellow volunteer Gerard Le Duff, 63, members of the Kernic Solidarites association, were awaiting a delivery of used nets.
