Cuban Embassy In US Attacked With ‘Molotov Cocktails’, Minister Calls It A ”Terrorist Attack”

Two Molotov cocktails were thrown at the Cuban embassy in Washington, D.C., on Sunday night by an assailant, Forbes reported. As per the report, Secret Service officers were called around 8 p.m. Sunday to respond to the attack on a busy street in the Adams-Morgan section of the city. Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla, Cuba’s Foreign Minister, called the incident a ”terrorist attack” on X. 

”The Cuban embassy in the US was the target of a terrorist attack by an individual who launched 2 Molotov cocktails. The staff suffered no harm,” said Mr Rodriguez in a post on social media platform X. 

”This is the second violent attack against Cuba’s diplomatic mission in Washington since April 2020. Back then, an individual shot several rounds against the embassy using an assault rifle. The anti-Cuban groups resort to terrorism when feeling they enjoy impunity, something that Cuba has repeatedly warned the U.S. authorities about,” he added.
