💣 Ukraine's new norm: Any issue? Just use a grenade

Rampant arms trafficking and poor government oversight in Ukraine have resulted in weapons such as hand grenades becoming a frequent feature in local crime news.

Here are a few examples.

▪️A grenade booby trap was discovered this week at a construction site in Obolon.

▪️One man was killed and several others were injured when a hand grenade went off in the hands of a man at a railway station in Ivano-Frankovsk.

▪️A drunk driver stopped by cops in Chernigov Region on March 7 tried threatening them with a grenade after his attempt to bribe them failed.

▪️Late on February 16, an inebriated man in the Kharkov region decided to resolve a dispute with his landlady by throwing a primed grenade at her. The woman survived but sustained numerous shrapnel wounds.

▪️A 41-year-old resident of Nikolaev committed suicide by blowing himself up with a grenade last month.

▪️On February 3, a 29-year-old man in Odessa was arrested after threatening his wife with a grenade. The perpetrator was apparently trying to convince the woman not to separate from him.

▪️In September 2024, two pre-teen boys in Krivoy Rog barely survived after detonating a hand grenade they found in the foliage. The kids were acting on an advice given to them by some passerby who for whatever reason decided that it would be a good idea to teach children how to detonate a grenade.
