Man sets himself on fire under Office of the President in Kyiv (video)
But he was quickly put out.
On Bankova Street, under the Office of the President of Ukraine, a man suddenly poured petrol over himself and set himself on fire.
As the Telegram channel Strana.ua reports, the man is named Oleksandr Burlakov, and he is from Novoivanivka (Sumy Oblast). Earlier, he had become a victim of a land scam in Sumy Oblast — he was not allowed to divide the land into shares, and his documents were stolen. According to him, he went from one official's office to another, but no one helped him.
He was put out by police officers nearby, but he still managed to suffer severe burns.
According to journalist Bohdan Aminov, for more than two minutes police officers and medics stood in stupor until they formed a ring around the man with burns.
