A statement released on 5 June 2008 on an al-Qaeda run Web site claims responsibility for a recent car bomb attack on the Danish Embassy in Islamabad. The 2 June bombing left six people dead and 25 injured and also destroyed part of the embassy building. The Web site posting warned of further attacks and claimed that the bombing was in retaliation for Danish newspapers reprinting a controversial cartoon depicting an image of the Prophet Muhammad. Officials could not verify the authenticity of the Web site message and have not determined who carried out the bombing.
