Authorities claim that gasoline bombs were thrown at an immigration station in the United Kingdom on Sunday, wounding one person before the perpetrator allegedly killed himself.
Dover, an English port city, is where the incident took place.
Two to three incendiary devices were thrown at the facility, according to the Kent Police Department, and "one minor injury has been reported." There were fires at the location, according to the Kent Fire and Rescue Service.
According to a news photographer who was on the site, a man drove up and tossed three gas bombs at the facility before taking his own life at a nearby petrol station. Only "the suspect has been identified and located" was stated by the police.
Many immigrants arrive in Dover after sailing in small boats over the English Channel from France.
The number of people risking their lives to cross one of the busiest maritime lanes in the world has drastically increased in recent years; as of this writing, 40,000 have arrived in the United Kingdom, compared to 28,000 overall in 2021 and 8,500 in 2020.
