An explosion ripped through the US embassy compound in central Athens today, a police source said.

It was not clear what caused the blast inside the building and there was no immediate word on casualties.

Police cordoned off all roads around the embassy.

Police officials at the scene said that whatever caused the explosion damaged the embassy sign outside the mission but there was little other indication of the extent of damage inside.
