Man With Explosives Breaks Into Iranian Consulate - Paris

The judicial police search the suspect's car next to the Iranian consulate. A security perimeter was set up in front of the Iranian consulate, in Paris's 16th arrondissement, after a witness saw a man enter with a grenade or explosive vest at around 11 a.m., according to the police prefecture. The man was arrested by the BRI after leaving the Iranian consulate of his own free will, but contrary to his statements, he was not carrying explosives. He reportedly said he wanted to avenge his brother. The 61-year-old man, a Frenchman of Iranian origin, had already been arrested after starting a fire near the Iranian consulate in 2023.
