According to a police spokesperson, 26 individuals were wounded, with six of them in critical condition. The attack, which occurred in a half-Hungarian, half-Ukrainian village near the border of the two countries, left the attendees in a state of shock and chaos.
Terrifying video footage captured the moment the assailant entered the meeting room, keeping his hands in his pockets as the group engaged in a heated discussion. Suddenly, he revealed the grenades and drew the attention of everyone present, causing an immediate reaction of fear and panic.
The situation quickly escalated as the attacker hurled the grenades onto the floor, triggering powerful explosions that shook the room. The camera capturing the meeting on Facebook Live was jolted, and debris was sent flying in all directions.
