KYIV, Ukraine, Feb 22, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Explosions in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv killed a policewoman and wounded at least 15 people overnight in what local authorities on Sunday called an "act of terror". Officials said a 23?year?old woman police officer was killed, while a patrol car and a civilian vehicle were damaged. "This is definitely an act of terror," Lviv mayor Andriy Sadovy said in a Facebook post. "We have 15 people currently receiving medical aid, some of them are in very serious condition. Lviv, close to the Polish border and far from the front line, has faced sporadic strikes and security incidents since Russia's full?scale invasion in February 2022, but deadly explosions in the city centre remain rare.
