A Ukrainian village councillor created chaos during a meeting at the headquarters of Keretsky village council in western Ukraine.
A video released by the national police on Telegram captures the dramatic moment when a man in black entered the room amid a heated discussion.
Without hesitation, he produced three hand grenades, pulled out the safety pins, and dropped them on the floor, causing explosions as horrified attendees screamed.
The police statement reveals the grim aftermath, stating that 26 people were wounded, with six in critical condition. Medics were actively engaged in resuscitating the individual responsible for the grenade attack.
The incident sheds light on the unsettling reality that many Ukrainians have access to weaponry, a sobering consequence of the ongoing conflict with Russia.
