"Greece's capital was hit by a second day of apparently coordinated attacks Tuesday after mail bombs exploded at the Swiss and Russian embassies and police detonated suspicious packages at the Bulgarian embassy, outside Parliament and at a courier company.
The bombs were not particularly powerful and no one was injured Tuesday, Greek authorities said. No link was made with the recently discovered Yemen-based mail bomb plot uncovered last week.
Officials blamed the attacks on domestic extremists, and Athens police have arrested two suspects with ties to a radical leftist group. No group has claimed responsibility.Tuesday's explosions began when a bomb detonated in the courtyard outside a six-story building that is home to the Swiss Embassy. Swiss Foreign Ministry official Georg Farago said Athens embassy employees regarded the package as suspicious after noticing "traces of metal" on it."
NPRI wonder if those countries whose embassies have been targeted are home to debt holding banks?
