Unknown assailants hurled a grenade at the Pakistani consulate in Herat, Afghanistan on Saturday.
According to initial details, the grenade exploded in the compound of the consulate but there were no injuries or any damage to the consulate.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed the incident, adding that Afghan authorities had been requested to investigate the incident.
In May 2014, a handful of heavily armed insurgents, including suicide bombers, had attacked the Indian consulate in Herat.
Herat police chief General Samihullah Qatra said four attackers, including suicide bombers, had entered houses close to the consulate before dawn and began shooting into the compound.
“There were three suicide bombers. Our security forces killed all of them. Only five of our forces were wounded.”
