“Bloody envelopes” across Europe

Such packages have been received by the embassies of Ukraine in Hungary, the Netherlands, Poland, Croatia and Italy, as well as the consulates general in Naples (Italy), Krakow (Poland) and the consulate in Brno (Czech Republic).

Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleg Nikolenko said in recent days that the “significance of this message is being studied” and added that Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba had ordered all embassies and consulates involved to be put on high alert.
