internal conflict in Peru, the embassy was targeted on two occasions: once on September 11, 1987 (alongside
police stations and
power grids) and a second time on November 23, 1988, albeit unsuccessfully. The embassy moved at least twice, first being located near
Javier Prado Avenue since 1986, and moving to its current location in 2013, opening on November 18.
