(Web Desk) — A group of Afghan nationals on Sunday attacked the Pakistani Consulate in Frankfurt, Germany, during a protest.

Initially permitted by German authorities to hold a peaceful demonstration, the situation escalated when the protesters turned violent, throwing stones at the consulate building and attempting to gain entry.

German police have detained two Afghan nationals and are expected to make additional arrests as they review video footage to identify more protesters.

In response, Pakistani diplomatic officials have raised the issue with the German Foreign Ministry in Berlin. German authorities have assured Pakistani diplomats that a thorough investigation will be conducted.

The Pakistani Foreign Office is considering summoning German officials to lodge an official protest, emphasizing the gravity of the incident and the need for enhanced security measures to protect diplomatic missions.

This incident has raised concerns about the safety of diplomatic premises and personnel, leading to calls for stricter security protocols and improved cooperation between host countries and diplomatic missions to prevent such incidents in the future.
