PARIS (Reuters) - Uma funcionária do Fundo Monetário Internacional (FMI) foi ferida no rosto e nos braços quando uma carta-bomba enviada ao escritório da entidade em Paris explodiu ao ser aberta por ela, nesta quinta-feira, informou a polícia.

A detonação foi causada por um artefato caseiro, disse o chefe da polícia da capital francesa.

"Foi uma coisa bem caseira", disse Michel Cadot a repórteres. Segundo ele, recentemente houve algumas ameaças por telefone, mas não está claro se teriam ligação com o incidente desta quinta-feira.

Uma fonte da polícia relatou que a funcionária que abriu a carta sofreu queimaduras no rosto e nos braços, mas não corre risco de morte.

Separadamente, ao menos três pessoas ficaram feridas durante um incidente com tiros em uma escola de Grasse, cidade do sul da França, disse uma fonte policial. [nL2N1GT0J6]

A França, que está a seis semanas da eleição presidencial, vem sendo alvo de ataques de grupos islâmicos que mataram dezenas de pessoas nos últimos anos e ainda se encontra em estado de emergência, com unidades do Exército patrulhando as ruas parisienses.

Um grupo militante grego, a Conspiração de Células de Fogo, assumiu a autoria de um pacote-bomba enviado ao ministro das Finanças da Alemanha, Wolfgang Schaeuble, na quarta-feira, mas ninguém assumiu a autoria da carta-bomba de Paris de imediato.

O FMI está envolvido em discussões entre a Grécia e seus credores internacionais a respeito do desembolso de novos empréstimos a Atenas, conforme um pacote de ajuda econômica.

A secretária-geral do FMI, Christine Lagarde, repudiou a explosão, que classificou como "um ato de violência covarde".

"Eu... reafirmo a determinação do FMI para continuar nosso trabalho de acordo com nosso mandato. Estamos trabalhando de perto com as autoridades francesas para investigar este incidente e garantir a segurança de nossos funcionários", disse.

Letter bomb at IMF's Paris office injures woman employee

PARIS: A female employee of the International Monetary Fund suffered injuries to her face and arms on Thursday when a letter bomb mailed from Greece and addressed to the world lender's European representative blew up as she opened it, officials said.

The letter, which had arrived by mail, exploded as it was opened by a secretary at the institution's office in an upscale part of Paris.

The secretary, whose hearing was also affected, was receiving treatment but her injuries were not life-threatening, Paris police chief Michel Cadot told reporters. The blast caused little damage to the office.

The letter was intended for the IMF's European representative, according to police. Jeffrey Franks, a 24-year veteran of the fund, has been director of the IMF's Europe office since March 2015, according to its website.

Paris anti-terrorism prosecutors opened an investigation.

A militant Greek group, Conspiracy of Fire Cells, claimed responsibility for a parcel bomb mailed to German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble on Wednesday, but there was no immediate claim for the Paris attack.

However, a Greek return address was on the envelope which exploded in Paris, Greece's public order minister said in Athens.

"French authorities just informed us that it was mailed from Greece," Nikos Toskas told Ant1 Television.

The explosion was caused by a device that was fairly home-made, "like a big fire cracker," police chief Cadot said.

Asked if the head of the IMF's European office had received threats, Cadot said: "There had been some phone calls in recent days but they don't seem necessarily to be linked to this matter."

The IMF has been involved in talks between Greece and its international creditors on disbursing new loans to Athens under a bailout programme.

In a separate incident, a teenage student opened fire on Thursday at a high school in southeastern France injuring three people, including the headmaster, the interior ministry said.

France, which is in the middle of a campaign for presidential elections in six weeks time, has been hit by attacks by Islamist groups in the last few years that have killed scores of people and the country is still in a state of emergency with army units patrolling the streets of Paris.

President Francois Hollande said French authorities would do all they could to find those responsible for the attack on the IMF. "I want to tell all those who work for this great institution that we are by their side," he said.

IMF chief Christine Lagarde, a former French economy minister, condemned the explosion as "a cowardly act of violence."

"I ... reaffirm the IMF's resolve to continue our work in line with our mandate. We are working closely with the French authorities to investigate this incident and ensure the safety of our staff," she said.
