BERLIN, March 21: Suspect letters sent on Friday to eight foreign embassies in Berlin, including many representing countries supporting the war against Iraq, were found to contain a harmless powder, police said.
A spokesman said the powder sent in common postal envelopes to the Australian, British, Canadian, Israeli, Italian, Polish and Spanish embassies and a common mission for Scandinavian nations, was harmless but did not identify it.
A Polish foreign ministry spokesman said earlier that the letter received by the Polish embassy had been analysed and found to contain ordinary flour.—AFP
