"A shell exploded, wounding five servicemen and damaging a vehicle during work on de-mining and eliminating the consequences of the emergency situation in Kamenka," local authorities in Krasnoyarsk said in a statement.
The number of injured people rose to nine, RIA news agency cited an emergency services source as saying.
