Deadly explosions in western Ukraine investigated as terrorist attack

At least one person was killed and dozens more injured in explosions that hit the western Ukrainian city of Lviv on Sunday morning, in what authorities have called a "terrorist attack."

The explosions occurred as police responded to an emergency call about a break-in at a store near the city center, according to the Lviv regional prosecutor's office.

The first occurred after police arrived at the scene, she said, and was followed by another after a second team arrived.

A 23-year-old policewoman was killed in the attack, while a patrol car and a civilian vehicle were damaged, the prosecutor's office said.

The Lviv regional prosecutor's office said it had launched an investigation into "a terrorist act that caused serious consequences," but added that the circumstances were unclear.

"This is definitely an act of terror," Lviv Mayor Andriy Sadovy said in a Facebook post.

Officials have not yet said who is suspected of carrying out the attack./ CNA
