The group of people who attacked the North Korean Embassy in Madrid on 22 February, assaulting staff members and seizing their computers and documents, filmed their actions on micro-cameras, the Spanish-based media reported on Thursday, citing unnamed sources in the Spanish police.
Spanish media have been also suggesting that US intelligence was behind the attack. Meanwhile, the Spanish National Court said Tuesday that an alleged leader of the group claimed to have acted on its own initiative. He reportedly contacted the US Federal Bureau of Investigation and told it about the attack soon after it happened.
