MOSCOW – Ukraine on Friday asked foreign governments to tighten security around its diplomatic missions on their territories.

Speaking at a news conference in Kyiv, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Oleg Nikolenko said several Ukrainian diplomatic offices had gotten packages containing "animals' eyes."

In addition, the Ukrainian Embassy in the US received a letter with "an article critical of Ukraine."

On Nov. 30, police in Madrid received a report about a fire in a building of Ukraine's Embassy. According to media reports, the fire was caused by an explosive device, hidden in a postal envelope, which detonated after it was opened.

One embassy staffer is said to have suffered minor injuries. (Anadolu)
