Updated: Huge explosion outside embassy of denmark in IslamabadCategory: City Written by: Amend Foster (on June 02, 2008 - 01:51 PM)E-Mail Article to a Friend
A large explosion outside the denmark embassy in the highly secure area of F-6/2 has left at least 4 people dead and several injured.
The explosives went off at around 1:00 pm Pakistan standard time.
It has shocked one and all how such a large explosion could have taken place in an area so highly secured by police and intelligence officials all the time.
Video's that I have seen on various news channels show a lot of debris, numerous cars destroyed and a large crater left in the ground where apparently a car bomb went off.
The exact details of losses are yet to be clear, but clearly the blast was of a big big scale.
Update: At least 8 people have reportedly died in the tragedy and at least 24 are injured
