Two explosive projectiles detonated outside the Russian consulate in Marseille, France, on the third anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Two projectiles were thrown at the perimeter wall of Russia's consulate in the southern French port city of Marseille on Monday, one of which exploded, a French security source said. It was not immediately clear if the projectiles cleared the wall. BFM TV said the projectiles were Molotov cocktails and that they landed in the consulate's garden.
