Pro-Iranian protesters killed in Pakistan’s port city of Karachi after storming US consulate compound, local emergency workers say. Follow live updates:

Six protesters angered by the death of Iran’s supreme leader have been killed and 20 others injured after they stormed the heavily fortified US consulate compound in Pakistan’s port city of Karachi, according to local emergency workers.

“Hundreds of people suddenly appeared near the American consulate” and police arrived quickly, said Karachi Police spokesman Rehan Ali.

Yelling heard on some videos posted to social media suggests the protest was motivated by the US-Israel attacks on neighboring Iran.

Videos geolocated by CNN show dozens of protesters breaking through the security barricades and beating the consulate’s windows with sticks, before flames can be seen in the windows. Shots can be heard in at least one video.

It is unclear how the six protesters died but images emerged of bloodied bodies lying on stretchers. CNN has reached out to the US Embassy in Islamabad for comment.

The movement of US government personnel had already been restricted in Karachi, with the consulate releasing a statement Saturday citing the “current regional tensions.”

Shiite Islam is the dominant branch in Iran while its followers form a large minority in Pakistan.

An oil tanker was attacked about five nautical miles off the coast of Masandam in Oman, the country’s maritime security center said Sunday.

Four people were injured and the whole crew of 20 people was evacuated, it said. The vessel was called “Skylight” and flew the flag of Palau, a small island nation in the western Pacific.

The maritime security center said the rescues were carried out by the Omani navy and military, “reflecting the national readiness to deal with maritime incidents.”

Oman had played a key role in mediating the recent talks between Iran and the United States, which aimed to reach a new nuclear deal.
