The attack occurred at the Russian House, a center promoting culture and history, with Czech police investigating the incident. According to Igor Girenko, director of the center, three of the six Molotov cocktails did not explode. The building did not catch fire, but a photo shows a broken window while two windows and a wall are partly covered with smoke.
The exact number of Molotov cocktails thrown remains unclear, and it is unknown if there were any injuries or arrests. The center is funded by the Russian state but does not have diplomatic status, and it organizes various cultural, educational, and scientific programs, including Russian language courses. In response, the Russian embassy in Prague has asked Czech authorities to boost security for Russian institutions and employees in the country.
Unacceptable.
Czech Interior Minister Lubomír Metnar called the attack 'unacceptable' and stated that authorities were ready to react if further measures are needed. The specific security measures being considered or implemented have not been detailed, and the extent of damage beyond the broken window and smoke-covered areas is still being assessed.
