That was more than 1 granade. Dude just tossed them casually. What needs to happen to people to act this way???

Maybe he is a russian apologist. I don’t understand what was going through his mind… hopefully he is the only dead from this.

Well, if you read the article the only thing we have to go off of is that he actually argued that he wanted to see and audit the 2023 budget before approving the 2024 budget that included a raise for the city council so just as likely he thought they were all corrupt.

Dedication to Ukraine’s new anti-corruption policies in action.

Well that was horrifying.

Were those flashbangs?

They looked cylindrical and in that little of a room it seems like more people should have died.

No, that’s F-1, a standard defence grenade (smaller blast wave, but more fragments flying)

It sounds like it was the bomber, Serhiy Batryn, that was reported as dead. Conflicting reports as to whether he has actually died. This was not related to Russia from what I could gather. He had a long standing feud with members of the local council.

I've heard people saying everyone should be more involved in local politics, but I don't think this is what they have in mind...

I really hope he lives so they can properly execute him.
