Report: Terror attack foiled at US embassy in Damascus
By JPOST.COM STAFF
Several terrorists apparently tried exploding a vehicle outside the US embassy in Damascus on Tuesday morning, and then exchanged gunfire with US Marines in the area.
The terrorists, according to some reports, drove up to the embassy gate, exited the vehicle and opened fire on embassy guards. The guards then returned fire, after which the vehicle exploded.
Black smoke was seen rising from the building, while explosions and gunfire were heard in the area. Ambulances and fire engines were rushing to the scene.
The fate of the attackers was still unclear, but according to witnesses it appeared they were killed. According to BBC, at least four people were killed in the battle, which included grenades and small arms fire.
Large numbers of Syrian security forces sealed off the compound from pedestrians.
The US ambassador to Syria was recalled some time ago by the Bush administration, while lower-level embassy staff still work in the building.
US President George W. Bush has consistently blamed Syria for facilitating terror attacks on US troops in Iraq from its territory. Along with Iran, Iraq and North Korea - Syria comprises what Bush has coined the "Axis of Evil."
