In the wake of the incident in Zakarpattia, where a deputy blew up grenades during a session in the village council, a mechanism will be developed to strengthen security measures in local governments and state institutions in view of wartime. This was reported to UNN by Olena Berezhna, a spokeswoman for the National Police of Ukraine.

Regarding the incident that occurred today in Zakarpattia, a detailed analysis of the situation is being conducted, and a mechanism will be developed to strengthen security measures in view of wartime and existing threats. We understand that local governments and state institutions should remain accessible to all citizens, but people's stay in these institutions should be safe,
