The packages arrived several days after six letter bombs were mailed to offices in Spain, including those of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and the American and Ukrainian Embassies.
By Rob Picheta, Eve Brennan, Lindsay Isaac and Ivana Kottasová, CNN Suspicious packages, including blood-soaked envelopes containing “animal eyes,” have been sent to Ukrainian embassies and consulates in several European cities, the country’s foreign ministry has said.
Animal eyes were sent to Ukrainian embassies and consulates in six different European nations. Ukrainian embassies have received many packages, including one containing explosives.
The parcels arrived after a package containing an explosive device sent to the Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid ignited upon opening on Wednesday and injured an employee. That was one of multiple explosive parcels found in Spain this week.
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said “we have reason to believe that a well-planned campaign of terror and intimidation of Ukrainian embassies and consulates is taking place.”
