Five windows have been broken by an explosion outside of a test center in the northwestern Netherlands, local police reported. The blast is suspected to be a pipe bomb attack.
The explosion happened early Wednesday morning in the town of Bovenkarspel in the Dutch province of North Holland. Fortunately, nobody was injured.
The incident took place in the street outside a Covid-19 testing center operating in the port town. Police said it will take several hours after securing the area to collect evidence and conduct a preliminary investigation. They now believe it was a deliberate attack targeting the center and that the explosive device was likely a pipe bomb.
