He said, a suicide bomber blew himself up in the middle of a large crowd. At least one more attacker started firing, several eyewitnesses in the area and a friend told me about it. The BBC quoted a source in the UK Defense Ministry as saying that there were no reports of any British casualties. The incident comes amid warnings of a terrorist attack by Western countries at the airport as the evacuation of foreign nationals continues.
