Police have begun to establish the circumstances of the explosion that occurred on April 25 in the city of Chornomorsk, Odesa region.

According to the press service of the Main Directorate of the National Police in Odesa Oblast, law enforcement officers have established that an unknown object exploded in one of the apartments, injuring the owner.

In February, a Toyota car exploded in the morning on Akademika Korolyova Street in Odesa. A 56-year-old man was injured. He was hospitalized. Police operatives, investigators, forensic experts, and explosives experts are working at the scene. The legal qualification of the incident will be determined after all the circumstances are clarified. The Security Service of Ukraine has classified the car explosion in the Kyiv district of Odesa as a terrorist act and has already opened a criminal investigation.

On February 14, police investigators in Odesa opened proceedings over a death threat and illegal handling of weapons found in the car of a city businessman. The incident occurred on Pedagogichna Street. The businessman himself reported to the police about the explosives he found in his car. The police arrived at the scene and found a hand grenade fuse in the car's exhaust pipe.

On February 6, an explosion occurred in Odesa near a residential building on Akademika Korolyova Street. The driver of the car was killed. The Security Service, together with the National Police, took comprehensive measures to establish all the circumstances of the incident and the persons involved. The incident was classified as a terrorist attack. One of the versions is the possible involvement of the deceased in the manufacture of explosives that detonated due to careless handling. He could have been planning a terrorist attack ordered by Russian special services.

Law enforcement officers have not ruled out that the deceased was involved in the arson attack on three military vehicles in Odesa ordered by representatives of enemy special services. The videos were posted in a pro-Russian public disguised as Ukrainian resistance. After that, he received another assignment.
