2015 Kharkiv bombing
The 2015 Kharkiv bombing occurred on 22 February 2015, when a bomb exploded during a Ukrainian national unity rally in the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv, Kharkiv Oblast. The blast killed at least three people and injured another 10, including a boy age 15 and a policeman. On 25 February the death toll rose to four. It was one of many bombings in the cities of the Kharkiv oblast and Odesa oblast.
Security forces arrested four people after the attack. More attacks happened in the city afterwards.[citation needed]
Bloomberg reported that the deadly attack in the government-controlled city assisted the decline of the hryvnia, Ukraine's national currency.
On 28 December 2019 suspects Viktor Tetyutsk, Serhiy Bashlykov and Volodymyr Dvornikov were sentenced to life imprisonment. They were released (during a major prison exchange) and handed over to representatives of the Russian-controlled Donetsk People's Republic and Luhansk People's Republic on 29 December 2019.[citation needed]
On February 22, 2015, an action was planned in Kharkiv. The announcement on the Euromaidan Kharkiv website stated the following:
"A year ago, tens of thousands of people came out in Kharkiv to thwart Bandyukovich's plans to split Ukraine. This year, Putler is threatening us with war in Kharkiv. Let's go out again to destroy Putler's delusion. We will meet on February 22, 2015 at 12:00 near the Palace of Sports, and we will take a long walk to the Freedom Square, we will demonstrate once again - we are against separatism and arbitrariness! We will break even the very thought of coming to us."

The march began near the Palace of Sports, activists lined up in a column and moved in the direction of Freedom Square. However, at about 1:20 p.m., when the column was only 100 meters away, an explosion erupted. The device, which, according to Kharkiv Oblast Prosecutor Yuriy Danylchenko, was an anti-personnel mine with a radio-controlled device, fired. According to the Security Service of Ukraine, the explosive was hidden in a snowdrift the night before. The TNT equivalent of an explosion is 2 kg.
