Suspect arrested after Molotov cocktail attack on Russian center in Prague
Czech police have arrested a suspect in connection with a Molotov cocktail attack targeting a Russian cultural center in Prague last week. Authorities confirmed that the individual turned himself in and admitted responsibility for the incident.
The attack occurred late at night and caused damage to the building, but no injuries were reported. According to investigators, several incendiary devices were thrown at the site, with some exploding outside while others landed inside without detonating.
The building, known as the Russian Center for Science and Culture, serves as a hub for promoting Russian language and cultural activities. However, it has been at the center of political tensions, as Czech authorities do not recognize it as a diplomatic facility and have previously expressed concerns over potential propaganda activities.
The incident has further strained relations between Prague and Moscow, which have been tense in recent years due to geopolitical disputes. Officials say the investigation is ongoing to determine the suspect’s motives and whether others may have been involved.
