Теракт з використанням гранати під час призову на військову службу в Кам'янському призвів до поранення трьох осіб.

Attack in Kamianske

A 50-year-old man threw a grenade at personnel from the Territorial Recruitment and Social Support Center (TCC) in the city of Kamianske, Dnipropetrovsk region, on July 2 during a routine check of military registration documents. The explosion injured three individuals: a police officer, a TCC serviceman, and the assailant himself. All three were hospitalized.

An investigative police team is currently at the scene, working to determine the full circumstances of the incident. Authorities are assessing the legal classification of the case and preparing to enter the details into the Unified Register of Pre-trial Investigations, as reported by the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Police.

Other Incidents Across Ukraine

Meanwhile, in Lviv, the Lviv Regional Prosecutor's Office has sent an indictment to court against a 34-year-old former customs inspector. He is charged with the premeditated murder of a 52-year-old serviceman who was killed while on duty. Additionally, in Kharkiv, during mobilization notification activities, an attack on TCC servicemen resulted in one military member dead and another wounded.

These events highlight the tense situation in Ukraine, where military personnel and law enforcement officers face serious threats while carrying out their duties. Attacks on TCCs in various cities underscore the potential risks tied to military mobilization and security, calling for additional state measures to protect both servicemen and civilians.

The recent grenade attack in Kamianske is not an isolated incident, as tensions continue to rise across Ukraine. A similar attack occurred in Kharkiv, where a military recruitment officer was fatally injured in a knife assault. These violent acts against recruitment personnel raise serious concerns about the safety of those involved in mobilization efforts.
