In Dnipro, a 16-year-old boy was detained, suspected of organizing a double terrorist attack. One person was killed during the explosions, and another law enforcement officer sustained serious injuries.

The Security Service of Ukraine, together with the police, detained a minor resident of Dnipro, who is suspected of carrying out a double bombing on November 23. This was reported by ThePublic.info, citing official SBU information.

According to investigators, the explosions occurred in the private sector of the city, near the railway tracks. The first homemade device was planted in such a way as to attract a random victim — a 35-year-old man with a drug addiction was lured to the scene, supposedly to find a "stash." He died during the detonation.

According to law enforcement officials, the explosion was used as bait. When the police arrived at the scene, the organizers activated a second IED, resulting in one police officer being seriously injured.

The suspect, who is only 16 years old, has been detained. He is being prepared for suspicion under articles related to terrorist activities.
