Two VBIED’s at two entrance points, with snipers as well. These guys were also wearing police uniforms and had a small force on foot that tried to enter through the attack points. Looks like these mufsid failed to get in, thanks to the good work of the security professionals guarding the embassy. Unfortunately, 16 people died in this attack. –Mudeer

Bush: Embassy attack a reminder nation ‘at war’
By MATTHEW LEE
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Bush says the attack on the U.S. embassy in the capital of Yemen is a reminder that the United States is “at war” with extremists.
Attackers armed with automatic weapons, rocket-propelled grenades and at least one suicide car bomb assaulted the embassy. Sixteen people were killed, including six assailants. No Americans were hurt.
The U.S. says the assault has “the hallmarks of an al-Qaida attack.” The United States says a “vicious” attack on the U.S. Embassy in the Yemeni capital was a failed attempt to breach the compound’s walls.
State Department spokesman Sean McCormack told reporters Wednesday that the embassy’s security upgrades, combined with the response of security officials, stopped attackers armed with automatic weapons, rocket-propelled grenades and at least one suicide car bomb.
Officials say sixteen people were killed, including six assailants.
McCormack says no Americans were hurt. He says one U.S. embassy guard from Yemen was killed, along with several Yemeni security officials.
He says the assault bears “all the hallmarks of an al-Qaida attack.”
