Danish Embassy Bombing Pakistan

On June 2, 2008, a massive bombing at the Danish embassy in the Pakistani capital of Islamabad killed at least six people and injured dozens more.

Reports said the blast may be the result of a suicide car bomb.

Threats

The embassy had been the target of Al Qaeda terrorist threats, since cartoons relating to Islam and the Prophet Muhammad were reprinted in the Danish newspaper Jyllands Posten in February 2008.

Quotes

  1. "...it is terrible that terrorists do this. The embassy is there to have a cooperation between the Pakistani population and Denmark, and that means they are destroying that."— Per Stig Moeller, Danish foreign minister
  2. ""I was with a friend passing through a nearby street then we heard a big bang. Then we saw smoke and people running in a frenzy. We shifted at least eight or nine injured to hospitals. They all have got serious injuries. They were soaked in blood."— Muhammad Akhtar, bystander
