Yeysk, Russia - May, 2023
In Yeysk, a man blocked the car he was in and blew himself up. This was announced by the mayor of the city Roman Bublik.
According to Bublik, the man was "in an inadequate condition." Nobody but him was hurt. Currently, doctors, emergency services, psychologists, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Federal Security Service are working on the spot.
In a video circulating on social networks, you can see that the car exploded at the moment when riot police began to run up to it.
It is reported that traffic police officers stopped the Niva to check documents. According to Mash, a 34-year-old local resident named Roman refused to provide documents and said that if he was not released, he would activate the explosive device in the car. When the riot police arrived, Roman blew himself up and died on the spot.

The first video shows the entire incident, the explosion occurs at the 0:44 s mark.
It happened in July 2020 in Colombia, on the main road between the cities of Santa Marta and Barranquilla; the gasoline truck turned over and people from the surrounding area came to steal the fuel.
Despite being among the oldest towns in the Americas (founded in 1525 by Spanish, but a village already existed) and also surrounded by large industrial areas and harbors, this town is very impoverished. This tragedy was bound to happen, people from this town used to stop industrial vehicles and transportation trucks to "ask" for money, an illegal toll if you will... and of course if you did not give them any money they would hurt you or damage your vehicle.
