The Russian House building in Prague was attacked—Molotov cocktails were thrown at it, its head Igor Girenko told TASS.
Czech police said they are investigating the incident, which took place on the evening of March 26, when an unknown individual threw several incendiary devices at the building. A suspect is being sought on suspicion of property damage.
The Russian House in Prague, according to information on its website, was opened in 1971. Its core mission is defined as “introducing citizens of the Czech Republic to the history and culture of Russia, the traditions of the peoples living in the country, and its potential.” Similar centers operate in various countries, including in Western Europe, and have continued their work after the start of the war in Ukraine. The network is managed by Rossotrudnichestvo.
