Two police officers have been injured, one seriously, following an explosion on Thursday night outside a police building in Berlin, Germany, according to DW.
Authorities in the German capital said the officers were on a routine security patrol when an unidentified object exploded near the fence.
"This evening, at around 8:20 pm (1920 GMT), a serious security incident occurred at the perimeter fence" of a police building in the Wittenau district of northern Berlin, police posted on social media platform X.
One officer suffered injuries to the face and eyes, while the other experienced "sound trauma." Both received medical treatment.
