Oschadbank reports kidnapping of its employees, cash collection vehicles, and valuables in Hungary
Today, March 5, 2026, two vehicles belonging to Oschadbank’s cash collection service, accompanied by seven employees of the cash collection team, were unjustifiably detained in Hungary while carrying out a regular transport of foreign currency and bank metals between Raiffeisen Bank Austria and Oschadbank Ukraine.
According to GPS signal data, the illegally detained Oschadbank vehicles are currently located in the center of Budapest, near one of Hungary’s law enforcement agencies. The location of the vehicles has been confirmed by representatives of the Ukrainian Embassy in Hungary and the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The whereabouts of Oschadbank employees are currently unknown.
The transportation of funds and valuables was carried out by Oschadbank within the framework of and in accordance with an international agreement with Raiffeisen Bank, Austria. The cargo was cleared in accordance with international transportation rules and applicable European customs procedures. The value of the valuables in the stolen vehicles amounted to US$40 million, €35 million, and 9 kg of gold.
Oschadbank demands the immediate release of its employees and property and their return to Ukraine.
The bank’s management is in contact with the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and law enforcement agencies to coordinate further actions.
‼️Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiga:
“Today in Budapest, Hungarian authorities took seven Ukrainian citizens hostage. The reasons for this, as well as their health status and the possibility of contacting them, are still unknown.
These seven Ukrainians are employees of the state-owned Oschadbank who were traveling in two cash-in-transit vehicles between Austria and Ukraine, transporting funds and valuables as part of regular transfers between state banks.
In fact, Hungary has taken hostages and stolen money. If this is the “force” that Mr. Orbán spoke of today, then it is the force of a criminal gang. This is state terrorism and racketeering.
We have already sent an official note demanding the immediate release of our citizens.
We will also appeal to the European Union with a request for a clear qualification of Hungary’s illegal actions, hostage-taking, and robbery.

Did Hungary just join the war? Is this Orbans attempt at staying in power
WTAF.
Putins puppet is his masters bidding. Except Ukraine controls oil flows to Hungary. This will get messy.
Hungary just went full retard
Wild for one of the weakest states on the continent
This is so unimaginably stupid that it’s hard to even start to describe how much of a shitbrain idea this is.
I don’t imagine banks will be too happy to direct their cash transfers through hungary in the near future.
