American embassy at Beirut is bombed 17 Americans are among the dead; others are missing or injured

SEVENTEEN AMERICANS were killed, including Foreign Service and military personnel, when a bomb exploded at the US. embassy in Beirut on April 18 at 1:05 p.m. local time. Four other Americans were hos¬ pitalized, although many more were injured. At least 21 Foreign Service national employees were also killed, 12 were missing and presumed dead, and 16 were known to have been in¬ jured in the blast which caused the central portion of the eight-story building to collapse. (See pages 4-5 for names.) Wbrkers dug through the rubble for days, searching for victims. The ex¬ plosion, which damaged the building beyond repair, reportedly shook all of Wfest Beirut, blowing apart cars that were parked around the embassy. The exact cause of the explosion had not yet been determined, but various re¬ ports have mentioned a possibility that terrorists attached a bomb to a vehicle that was then driven to the embassy. Responsibility for the deed has not yet been determined. American ambassadors in Beirut at the time escaped serious injury. Am¬ bassadors Philip Habib and Morris Draper, of the Habib peace mission, were at the Presidential Palace in Baabda at the time of the explosion, but Ambassador Robert S. Dillon was at the embassy in his eighth-floor of¬ fice. “I was standing in my office with my telephone in one hand and a T-shirt in the other getting ready to go out for my afternoon jog,” he said, according to a report in the New York Marine security guard Jacques L. are carrying on under these circum¬ Massengill, outside the embassy shortly Times. “All of a sudden there was an after the bombing.

In a Statement from Mexico City where he was at the time of the ex¬ plosion, Secretary of State George P. Shultz said: “Wbrds alone cannot ade¬ quately express my total revulsion at this senseless and inhuman terrorist act directed against our very dedi¬ cated and courageous staff—Leba¬ nese as well as American—in Beirut. Ambassador Dillon, who pulled him¬ self out of the rubble of his office ... exemplifies the bravery, coolness and clearheadedness that typifies the For¬ eign Service, and I am extremely proud of him and his excellent staff” Mr. Shultz also expressed his grief to
