The attack at the Polish Consulate General in Lutsk, Volyn region, and a simultaneous attempt to block the Lviv – Rava-Ruska route are a part of the sabotage action organized by Russian special services, and the mastermind behind its implementation is Mykola Dulskyi, the leader of the Nazhdak [Emery] radical public organization, Ukrainian Security Service (SBU) said.

“As the security service’s operatives established, the mastermind behind realizing Russian special services’ illegal plot is leader of the Nazhdak radical public organization Mykola Dulskyi, who is currently in Russia and is wanted by Ukrainian law enforcement officials for a death threat. Dulskyi is a notorious agent of influence of Russian special services, who is engaged in active anti-Ukrainian work for money since 2015,” the SBU press center said on Friday.

The SBU officials also established Dulskyi’s involvement in the paid protest rallies near the Central Elections Commission in Kyiv on March 15, the press service said.

As reported, the Polish Consulate General in Lutsk was attacked in the early hours of March 29.

The premises were supposedly shelled from a grenade launcher. The shelling resulted in a hole in the roof of the building and a broken window.

No one was in the building at the moment of the blast, and therefore, no one was injured
