British Embassy Evacuation

A skyscraper in Madrid that houses the British, Dutch, Australian and Canadian embassies was evacuated on Tuesday over a bomb warning that turned out to be false.

A US drone killed at least six suspected al Qaeda militants in southern Yemen on Wednesday, officials said, a day after US and British embassies evacuated some staff because of growing fears of attacks.

Some 75 staffers at the US embassy in Yemen have been evacuated aboard a US military plane because of a region-wide terror threat, a US official said today.

Britain's Foreign Office says it has evacuated all staff from its embassy in Yemen due to increased security concerns.

Britain said on Friday it had no immediate plans to withdraw its diplomats from North Korea but said it was discussing its next moves with international partners, amid escalating nuclear tensions on the Korean peninsula.
