AP excerpt: " ... Police officials at the scene said that whatever caused the explosion damaged the official embassy sign outside the mission, but there was little other indication of the extent of damage inside. ..."

Probably someone tossed a package bomb over the fence.

damaged the official embassy sign outside the mission

If they mean a sign that is attached to the building, that's one thing. Could be a bomb in a lobby.

If they mean a sign unattached to the building, that's a pretty darn big explosion.

AP gets it wrong as usual.

Rocket hit the marble to the far upper left of the US Embassy symbol. not even hit.


It then bounce and broke a window.

Sat Tv showed images of people looking out the window.

AP's incompetent reporting at work.

Today was a meeting on the FYROM question with the skopian debate in the balkans. Any number of groups who don't want the greeks and the americans talking or on friendly terms. (Greece has the largest military in the area)

If AP has said nothing it would have more complete reporting.
