An explosive went off at a law firm in The Hague on Tuesday evening, causing no injuries but considerable damage to the building. This is the second explosive attack targeting a law firm in just over a week, after a previous attack on one in Amsterdam. People seem to be increasingly grabbing an explosive when they’re upset about something, the police said earlier on Tuesday. Less than half of this year’s explosive attacks were linked to crime.

The explosion in The Hague happened at around 10:00 p.m. on Laan van Meerdervoort 329, a building housing several law offices. The police are investigating and asked witnesses to come forward.
