An explosion has been heard in Brovary, Kyiv Oblast: police suspect a terrorist attack
Explosion in Brovary
Early on Tuesday morning, 14 April, an explosion occurred in a residential area in the town of Brovary, in the Kyiv region. One man was injured. The incident appears to be a terrorist attack.

This is reported by Suspilne, citing the Kyiv Regional Press Service.

According to preliminary reports, a homemade explosive device detonated. Suspects have already been detained. It is likely to be a terrorist attack.

The police have promised to release further information later.

Explosions in Ukrainian cities: what is known

As a reminder, in March, explosions occurred near police facilities in Lviv and several other cities, which were officially classified as terrorist attacks.

The most tragic events occurred in Lviv, where explosions in rubbish bins claimed the life of patrol officer Viktoria Shpylka, with a further 25 law enforcement officers injured. The perpetrators used a scheme involving a fake call to ‘102’ to set up an ambush.

Law enforcement identified the perpetrators: in Lviv, a woman was arrested who had planted a homemade explosive device in exchange for a promise to write off her loan, as well as her accomplice who made the call.

Similar attacks have occurred in other regions. In Mykolaiv, an explosion at a petrol station injured seven patrol officers, whilst in Dnipro, an explosion occurred directly inside a district police station, with no casualties reported.

Gas and electricity tariffs for households in Ukraine are set to rise from 2027 – a memorandum with the IMF

Ukraine may begin a gradual increase in gas and electricity tariffs for households as early as 2027. This scenario is set out in the updated Memorandum on Economic and Financial Policies, which the Ukrainian authorities have agreed with the IMF. However, no final decision has yet been made – the document itself does not imply an automatic increase in tariffs.
