Embassy blasts in Rome injure 2
ROME — Package bombs exploded at the Swiss and Chilean embassies in Rome today, injuring the two people who opened them, officials said. Police ordered checks at all embassies after a false alarm was also reported at the Ukrainian embassy.
No one immediately claimed responsibility, but authorities appeared to discout domestic anarchists or protesters.
“It’s a wave of terrorism against embassies, something much more worrisome than a single attack,” Rome Mayor Gianni Alemanno said.
Do you believe acts of terrorism like this are on the rise? Why or why not?
