This is the best summary I could come up with:
A village councillor in western Ukraine has thrown grenades on to the floor of a council meeting, wounding 26 people, police say.
The attack took place on Friday morning at the village council headquarters in Keretsky in the western Transcarpathian region.
Almost 90 minutes into the meeting, the footage shows one of the village councillors shouting, objecting to the budget.
“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, but there is no evidence yet that the attack was related to the conflict.
Ukrainian police say the SBU security service will investigate the incident as a “terrorist attack”.
