A 16-year-old suspect has already been detained

According to the NPU, a 35-year-old man died as a result of the first explosion.

After the arrival of the investigative and operational group and specialists from the Main Police Department's explosives service to the scene, a second controlled explosion occurred. As a result, the policeman was seriously injured.

Thanks to the joint efforts of the police and the SBU, it was possible to find out within 24 hours that a 16-year-old boy who was looking for "quick money" was involved in the terrorist attack.

It was established that the teenager contacted representatives of the Russian special services on Telegram — they were the ones who provided the young man with instructions and coordinates of the facility in the Dnipro.

The minor purchased components for making explosive devices, disguised them as fire extinguishers, equipped them for remote detonation, and installed them near a designated location. He also placed disguised mobile phones set up for video surveillance nearby.

The National Police and the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) have already detained the teenager — he has been declared a suspect.
