Details: According to the source of the Romanian media outlet, the police arrived at the scene to secure the area. Bomb disposal teams are also on the scene to conduct specific inspections.

"Bomb disposal teams arrived at the Embassy of Ukraine today following a call to 112 that several suspicious envelopes had been received. The teams have begun the standard procedure to check them. After conducting an inspection, it will be determined whether they will need to be removed and transported safely," the publication notes.

Background: On 5 December, in Spain, the police seized new envelopes from the post office with animal eyes addressed to Ukrainian diplomatic institutions with the purpose of intimidation.

"In total, we already have 21 cases of threats to Ukrainian embassies and consulates in 12 countries. As Dmytro Kuleba has already noted, Ukrainian diplomats cannot be intimidated or broken. We will continue to work effectively to protect Ukraine from the enemy and ensure our victory," wrote Oleh Nikolenko, the Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, on his Facebook page.

Earlier, Dmytro Kuleba, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, reported that packages with perverse threats in the form of plucked out animals’ eyes were recorded in Hungary, the Netherlands, Poland, Croatia, Italy, Austria, the Czech Republic, the Vatican, and France.
