No American diplomats were harmed.
A fifth attacker was wounded and in custody, officials said. It was not immediately clear how many total attackers may have been involved.

Woke up to this today.
CNN showing video of the vehicles. Propane tanks wrapped in pipe bombs filled the back of a van that did not blow up. One car did explode. Apparently Syrian security forces beat back the attack. They are saying one member of the Syrian security force was killed and they have one of the attackers in custody.
I'm sure there will be more news on this throughout the day.
