3 grenades detonated at local council meeting in Ukraine, 26 people injured

A man threw multiple grenades into a local community meeting in Ukraine, injuring more than two dozen people.

The unidentified individual committed the heinous attack on Friday morning against meeting attendees in the village of Keretsky — a half-Hungarian, half-Ukrainian village near the border of the two countries.

“As a result, 26 people were wounded, six of whom are in a grave condition,” a police spokesperson said, according to the BBC.

An unidentified councilor in Keretsky, Ukraine interrupted a local community meeting and detonated three grenades, injuring over two dozen people and reportedly killing one. The terrorist entered the room with his hands in his pockets, and video shows he went largely unnoticed for several seconds.

Video of the attack captured the moment the attacker entered the meeting room, keeping his hands in his pockets as the group continued a heated discussion.

The attacker then removed the grenades from his pocket and made himself known to the rest of the people present, who visibly jumped in shock.

Footage becomes chaotic after the attacker tosses the grenades onto the floor and explosions erupt, shaking the camera and sending debris across the room.

The meeting was being broadcast on Facebook Live as the attack unfolded.

Weaponry is easy to acquire for Ukrainian citizens as weapons are handed out en masse to bolster the ongoing defensive military operations against invading Russian forces.

The attacker raised the grenades up in the air to show the visibly shocked attendees before tossing them onto the floor of the room. Footage live-streamed from the meeting captures the moment of detonation and the following chaos as dozens of people were injured in the blast.
