The number of casualties is not yet clear. The explosion took place less than a mile away from the federal secretariat and National Assembly.
Heavy smoke has enveloped the entire area, but the Anti Bomb squad and civil defence took less than ten minutes to respond to the scene and cordon the perimeter. Ambulances have also rushed to the scene.
