TL;DR Summary

A man, Ihor Humeniuk, died after detonating an explosive device at a courthouse in Kyiv, Ukraine. Humeniuk, who was detained in 2015 for an attack near Ukraine's parliament, set off the device after barricading himself in a toilet and attempting to escape following a hearing. Two police officers were injured during the incident. The exact circumstances are unclear, but the explosions resulted in Humeniuk's death and the injury of the officers. The incident is now under investigation, and it does not appear to be linked to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
