The CBS team were outside their armoured Humvee jeep when the bomb went off.

'It wasn't a roadside bomb it was a car bomb,' Aliah Git, the executive editor of CBS Radio News, told the BBC.

'All we're being told is that they'd been stopped, the convoy, and gotten out of their vehicle due to something described only as a curious incident.

'They were wearing protective gear and a nearby car exploded.'"
