Letter bombs in Spain were supposed to stop support for Ukraine

In November and December letter bombs were delivered to, among others, the office of the Spanish Prime Minister, various ministries and the Ukrainian and American embassies. One person at the Ukrainian embassy suffered minor injuries as a result.

Heavy terrorism

The suspect, named Pompeyo Gonzalez Pascual, may face charges of serious terrorism.

He remains in pre-trial detention, because otherwise he might be able to flee to Russia. The judge points to the use of Russian messaging apps and encrypted emails as indications of that flight risk.

There are no indications that the man has collaborated with others or is part of a terrorist organization.
