The World - News from July 28, 1985

A bomb exploded outside the South African Embassy in Lisbon, shattering the building’s windows and door and damaging two parked cars. There were no reports of casualties. An anonymous caller said the leftist Revolutionary Autonomous Group was responsible for the blast and called the bombing and “act of solidarity” with the South African people. The group left a statement with a news agency calling South Africa’s state of emergency “a terrorist measure to repress blacks and workers.”
