Harare: Staff from the United States and British embassies in Zimbabwe have been detained by police on Thursday, a US embassy spokesman said.
The staff were visiting victims of political violence when they were detained.
The spokesman said five Americans, four Britons and two Zimbabweans were being held at a road block, five hours after the incident.
He added that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was doing its best to release them.
On Wednesday police detained opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai and his envoy for eight hours while they were campaigning for the presidential run-off later this month.
