A hand grenade was activated and thrown into the yard of a family's house, causing an explosion. No injuries were reported. Police identified and arrested three suspects: two men previously apprehended in early November 2025, aged 40 and 23, and a newly identified suspect (in January 2026), a 20-year-old man. All three are suspected of committing the criminal offences of causing general danger and illegal possession, carrying, and trafficking of weapons and explosive materials. During the search of the residence used by the younger suspect, another hand grenade was found and seized as evidence. Suspects were detained and brought before the competent prosecutor, after which pre-trial detention was ordered.
