A Ukrainian village councillor threw hand grenades at colleagues at a meeting, wounding 26 people, national police said Friday.
The incident took place Friday morning at the headquarter of the village council of Keretsky in western Ukraine.
A video posted by police on Telegram shows a man dressed in black entering the door of a council meeting during a heated discussion.
He then
pulls three hand grenades from his pockets, releases the safety pins and drops them on the floor, triggering explosions as those at the meeting scream.
"As a result, 26 people were wounded, six of whom are in a grave condition," the police statement said, adding that medics were trying to resuscitate the man who threw the grenades.
Many Ukrainians have access to weaponry due to the war with Russia.

Preliminary reasons why Transcarpathian deputy Batrin blew up grenades have become known
Deputies at the session approved the budget for 2024. The media write that Batrin argued very strongly with them - he demanded that the deputies report on the 2023 budget, and then adopt the budget for 2024.
A few minutes before the explosion, the deputy was quarreling with his colleagues that during the war it was impossible to give the village mayor a 50% bonus and a monthly bonus of 100% of the salary.
At some point, Batrin left the hall and returned 2 minutes 40 seconds later. The media also claim that another deputy left with Batrin, but did not return to the hall.
Note that the West is responsible for flooding Ukraine with weapons, with leaders as far away as Africa warning that they've been found in the hands of the terrorists in their region.
In recent months a military officer for the Kiev-junta died after 'receiving a parcel' with grenades inside, and assistants of the country's spy chief, along with his own wife, were
poisoned; but top level government and military infighting is one thing, low level public servants dropping grenades during a council meeting is quite another, and signals how the situation in Ukraine is deteriorating rapidly.
