Bomb at Cuban Embassy in Lisbon Leaves Two Dead
A blast at the Cuban Embassy in Lisbon killed two people and injured four amid Portugal’s tense election campaign. The attack, the first on Cuban diplomatic facilities in Portugal, followed government alerts as rival parties clashed and a tense mood dominated the run up to the first free legislative election since 1926. The explosion damaged the building, blew out walls and windows, and sent a Fidel Castro portrait flying from its frame.
