The suspect threw five or six Molotov cocktails near the entrance of the LDP headquarters, AzVision.az reports, citing NHK.
One of the firebombs struck a police vehicle, but fortunately, the resulting fire was quickly extinguished, and no injuries were reported.
After fleeing the scene of the initial attack in a car, the man attempted to force his way into the heavily guarded residence of Japan's Prime Minister. Despite his efforts to ram through the perimeter fence, the suspect was unable to breach the compound's defenses. Undeterred, he then tried to hurl what appeared to be a smoke grenade at the premises.
