Explosions struck the U.S. and Israeli embassies and the prosecutor's office in the Uzbek capital Tashkent on Friday, causing a number of casualties.
A suicide bomber killed two Uzbeki workers as he detonated a bomb in front of the Israeli embassy. The embassy's Israeli staff is holed up in the building and conveying messages to the Foreign Ministry.
