Seven Ukrainian police officers sustained injuries during a Monday blast in the southern city of Mykolaiv, with two officers suffering serious wounds, according to the country’s top police official.<\/p>

National police chief Ivan Vyhivskyi reported that the officers were positioned near their patrol vehicles while awaiting a shift change when the blast took place.<\/p>

Writing on his Facebook page, Vyhivskyi connected the incident to another recent attack on law enforcement personnel.<\/p>

“The day before yesterday, a terrorist attack against police officers took place in Lviv,” Vyhivskyi stated, referencing the western Ukrainian city located close to Poland’s border.<\/p>

“This is not a coincidence. The enemy is deliberately trying to kill Ukrainian police officers who defend people and the state every day,” he added.<\/p>

The Saturday incident in Lviv resulted in the death of a female police officer and left 24 additional people with injuries.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
