Unknown people fire at Poland's Consulate General in Lutsk

Unknown people have shelled the premises of the Consulate General of Poland in Lutsk, volyn24.com has reported.

The shelling was presumably carried out from a grenade launcher. Now, there is a hole in the roof of the building, and a window has been broken.

"They were aiming at the last window... The attack occurred at around 00:30. The consul told the police that the guards of the premises heard an explosion," the report said.

Judging by the size of the hole in the roof, they very likely fired from a grenade launcher or other large-caliber weapons.

Vice Consul Krzysztof Sawicki confirmed the fact of the shelling. He also said that no one was hurt as a result of the incident.

Police officers found the rear cover of an RPG-22 grenade launcher on the incident scene, the television channel 112.Ukraine said, adding that the fire was presumably coming from the backyard and the top floor window was hit.

There was no one in the room at the time of the incident, and no one was hurt, although security guards were one floor below.

A criminal case is pending on the terror attack charges, the channel said.

The consulate is closed for business for now.
