Security sources say one person - believed to be the bomber - was killed.

Ambassador Tim Torlot had been on his way to the embassy in the Yemeni capital Sana'a.

Sky sources have confirmed that Mr Torlot was the target of the attack.



A Foreign Office spokesman said: There was a small explosion beside the British Ambassador's car.

He was unhurt. No other embassy staff or British nationals were injured.
