"The United States places a high priority on the safety and security of diplomatic personnel around the world and we stand ready to assist with any investigation of these cowardly actions," she said.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with the injured personnel in New Delhi and their loved ones," she said.

Clinton's statement came hours after an Israeli embassy car went up in flames following an explosion in New Delhi and a second bomb was safely defused in Georgia's capital Tbilisi.
