On March 28, 1999, the sculptor Alexander Suslikov decided to express his protest against the American bombing of Yugoslavia in a very unusual and decisive way. Having stolen a jeep from a staff member of the GUVD, he stopped in front of the U.S. embassy, got the grenade machine RPG-18 and tried to shoot in the direction of the embassy building. When the grenade launcher gave the spark, he opened fire from the machine, after which he escaped.
