Terror and intimidation campaign continues: Ukrainian Embassy in Spain received bloody package

The package with traces of blood similar to those previously sent to other Ukrainian diplomatic missions was received by the Embassy of Ukraine in Madrid.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman, Oleh Nikolenko, reported this.

Nikolenko said: "The Ukrainian embassy in Spain also received a blood-stained package similar to those previously received by our other diplomatic institutions. The Spanish police surrounded the perimeter of the embassy for security reasons. Specialists are already working on the spot, and investigative actions are underway."

In a report from the scene, the RTVE TV channel reported that the ambassador and employees remained on the embassy premises; they were not evacuated. Police continue to expand the security perimeter around the building.

On Friday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine announced the continuation of a targeted campaign of terror and intimidation of Ukrainian embassies abroad.

After the terrorist attack in Spain, bloody packages arrived at the embassies in Hungary, the Netherlands, Poland, Croatia, and Italy, the consulates general in Naples and Krakow, and the consulate in Brno. There were animal eyes in the packages, and the packages themselves were soaked in a liquid of a characteristic color and had a corresponding smell.

The Ukrainian consulate in the Czech city of Brno was even evacuated this morning due to a suspicious package.

It will be recalled that on Wednesday afternoon, it became known that an employee of the Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid received minor injuries due to the explosion of a package on the premises of the diplomatic mission, which was addressed to the ambassador. It is known that in Spain, the incident was previously classified as a terrorist crime.
