Clients attacking a private bank to withdraw their own money took the employees hostage in Beirut, Lebanon. The incident started with the attackers, who could not withdraw their money for 3 years, staging a protest outside the bank. After the protest turned into a quarrel, the clients threatened the employees with a gun and tried to take money from the bank’s vault. An ATM in front of the bank damaged during the incident.
Andriy Portnov, former aide to ex-Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, was shot dead in Madrid’s upscale Pozuelo de Alarcon district. Spanish authorities say unidentified gunmen opened fire as the 52-year-old was dropping off his children at school, striking him in the back and head before fleeing.
Portnov, a former MP and lawyer, fled Ukraine with Yanukovych in 2014, briefly returned in 2019, and was later sanctioned by the U.S. for alleged judicial corruption.
