GRENADE ATTACK ON US EMBASSY IN MOSCOW
The US embassy in Moscow has been hit
by a rocket-propelled grenade, thought
to have been fired from a car.
It hit the sixth floor, shattering
windows, but did not enter the
building. There are no reports of
injuries and staff have been evacuated.
Police found an abandoned grenade
launcher and gloves at the scene.
The reason for the attack is not known,
but US officials say there is no
evidence to link it with Russian
opposition to US-led NATO air strikes
against Bosnian Serbs.
