At least one of the blazing Molotov cocktails hit a Border Guard security vehicle, which burst into flames while officers were inside.

The officers managed to evacuate from the vehicle in time safely from the flames.

Two other cars also caught fire in the conflagration as well.

Firefighters were eventually able to extinguish the flames.
