KYIV/MADRID, Dec 2 (Reuters) - Ukraine's embassy in Madrid received a parcel containing animal eyes on Friday, the latest in a series of similar "bloody packages" sent to its diplomatic missions across Europe, Ukrainian and Spanish officials said.

Police cordoned off the compound in the Spanish capital and started searching the area with sniffer dogs.

The packages, soaked in a liquid with a distinctive colour and smell, have been sent to embassies in Hungary, the Netherlands, Poland, Croatia and Italy, to general consulates in Naples and Krakow, and the consulate in Brno, Ukraine foreign ministry spokesperson Oleg Nikolenko said.

… The bloody missives follow the reception of six letter bombs sent in the past week to addresses in Spain including Ukraine's embassy in Madrid, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and the U.S. Embassy to Madrid, prompting Spain to step up security.

1. And the point is?

How did leaking, bloody packages ever make it out of the local post office or even a large regional postal sorting facility?

3. Most likely hand delivered,

...which is partially why they were searching the area with sniffer dogs.

2. If there was ever any doubt that these are monsters....

Put those doubts to rest.

5. That's weak.

Putin and his henchmen are not going to intimidate the Ukrainians.

[bronxiteforever]

6. Couldn't agree more. The Ukrainian people are amazing.

7. I wonder if this is from the Wagner mercenary group

They recently sent a bloodied hammer to the European Parliament.

8. Good point! Not a sophisticated plan here

but a group like Wagner could be watching how security forces respond to a threat to the embassies.

9. My first thought, too. Russian attacks have gotten much worse since the head of the Wagner Group

took command of the war. He created a private force of terrorists with no compunction about committing war crimes or any other crimes. He’s now doing the same with Russia’s military.

14. Huh?

Prigozhin is not in charge of the war. He's in charge of Wagner, which has a controlling present on one portion of a front.

Surovikin, the "butcher of ___________" (insert relevant mass occurrence of crimes against humanity here) is in charge of the war overall.

Not sure if they get along.

10. What is the symbolism of the eyes?

We are watching you?

[onetexan]

11. Thuggish & immature considering they've been slaughtering ppl?

[Raine]

12. Disgusting! 🤬 nt

[Evolve Dammit]

13. We are the vilest species to ever walk, crawl or swim on earth.

[BigmanPigman]

15. Hear hear!

[Duppers]

16. Indeed.

[LiberalLovinLug]

17. The first thing I locked onto was thinking about the poor animals they did this to

It tells a lot about the individuals who are behind these threats. How easy it is to simply use animal parts as props, taking straight from a living animal I would guess. This is how far away from normal human empathy for all life that these butchers are. They live in a world of violence and misery, and want the rest of the world to have to live in it too, including innocent animals.
