The staff of the Casa Rosada, the presidential building in Argentina, was evacuated Thursday night after a series of threats that arrived via telephone from different cities in the country.
On Thursday night, September 29, the evacuation of all the Casa Rosada staff in Argentina was carried out after a bomb threat was issued from different cities of the country.
As reported by El Clarín, during this night, there were also bomb threats in the Argentinean Ministry of Defense building minutes before President Alberto Fernandez was to go there for an official appearance.
As a result, the Explosives Brigade of the Argentine Federal Police mobilized to the place where a security operation was carried out.
There were two bomb threats, one at the Government House and the other at the Ministry of Defense.
The calls to 911 took place a few minutes before 8 PM.
In principle, the location of the alleged explosive inside the Argentine government house was not specified, unlike the other detonator, which was said to have been placed on the second floor of the building.
Argentine Federal Police personnel worked at the scene with the support of the Explosives Brigade and firefighters, who immediately went to the locations involved.
At around 10 PM this evening, a police report was issued, stating that “the situation is now under control”. After the operation, it was also confirmed that neither establishment had explosives.
