State media quoted a foreign ministry spokesman as saying members of staff had been wounded in an air strike.

However, residents and witnesses in Sanaa reported there was no damage to the embassy after the air strikes, Reuters and AP report.
An AP reporter at the site said the embassy was still standing and had no visible damage.
A coalition spokesman said the strikes had targeted rebel missile launchers, and that the rebels had used abandoned embassies for operations.
