At least two people were killed in the blast that rocked the Israeli Embassy in Uzbek capital Tashkent on Friday. Two more explosions were heard at almost the same time outside the US Еmbassy and the Prosecutors' Office in the city, where several people were also reported wounded. The Uzbek police and security services have not reported about the exact number of casualties yet. US and Israeli officials were quoted as saying the explosions were set off by suicide bombers. The blasts came soon after the trials began for people accused of involvement in a series of bomb attacks and shootings in late March.
