Ukrainian Military Aide Killed by Birthday Gift Grenade in Suspected Sabotage

A Ukrainian military aide, Hennadii Chastiakov, died in an explosion caused by a grenade he received as a birthday gift. The preliminary investigation suggests that Chastiakov did not believe the grenades were real, despite being warned by the suspect who gave them to him. The explosion was likely an accident, and five unexploded grenades were found at the scene. Chastiakov's death, initially suspected as an assassination, is now considered a tragic accident.
