Greek police say they have detonated another suspicious package outside the Bulgarian embassy in Athens, following blasts outside Parliament and the Swiss embassy. No injuries or damage have been reported after Tuesday's three small explosions, which came a day after two Greek men were arrested for allegedly planning a string of mail bomb attacks.

Greek authorities have charged two local men with terrorist acts in connection with a wave of mail bombs that targeted diplomatic missions in Athens.
Court officials say the suspects, whose names have not been released, were charged Tuesday with belonging to a terrorist group, acts of terrorism and causing explosions that endangered human lives. The men, both in their twenties, were arrested Monday.
The charges carry a minimum 25-year prison sentence.
The charge sheet did not specify what group the two men allegedly belonged to. Police say the one suspect was already wanted for alleged membership in a small radical anarchist group named Conspiracy Nuclei of Fire.
On Tuesday, small mail bombs exploded outside the Russian and Swiss embassies in Athens and another three were destroyed by police.
