Explosion at Ukraine embassy in Madrid injures one person

An explosion occurred at Ukraine’s embassy in Madrid, injuring one employee who was handling a letter, the Spanish Interior Ministry said Wednesday.

The individual was slightly injured and is being treated at hospital, while police are investigating, the ministry said.

Police say it is too early to know whether the explosion took place when the embassy worker tried to open an envelope, or simply move it. Spanish police said an employee at the Ukrainian embassy in Madrid was injured in an explosion that occurred while he was handling a letter.

The staff member suffered light injuries went to hospital under his own steam, police added.

 The Ukrainian embassy is located in the Hortaleza in northeastern Madrid.
