We were talking about this earlier, I thought it was 10 people. Oh, article says 13 (and they were freed).

An interesting aspect to it is that he was identified as Maksym Plokhoy, which is funny because "plokhoy" means "bad" in Russian. Also he was demanding that Ukrainian government officials came out and admitted they were terrorists.

My first thought was Did they keep the bus over 50 mph?

Hostage siege ended after the president agreed to endorse an animal documentary narrated by Joaquin Phoenix lol

An hours-long hostage siege ended in the Ukrainian city of Lutsk after President Volodymyr Zelensky met one of the alleged gunman's unusual demands -- to endorse a 2005 documentary about humanity's abuse of animals.

Zelensky spoke directly to the hostage-taker via phone, resulting in the release of three hostages, his press office said. Others were released after the Ukrainian president posted a short video on his official Facebook page saying: "Everybody watch the 2005 film 'Earthlings.'"

The documentary, narrated by Joaquin Phoenix, deals with the abuse and suffering of animals in industrial agriculture.

It wasn't 20 from what I know. They originally estimated around 10.
