Multilple explosions in London have caused terrible injuries…
British Home Secretary Charles Clarke says there have been “terrible injuries” in the explosions.
The Tube blasts at the height of the rush hour on Thursday were initially blamed on a power surge.
Union officials blamed the Tube blasts on a series of bombs, and Scotland Yard confirmed the bus explosion and said it was dealing with “multiple explosions” in London.
The Prime Minister’s office said they were “still unsure” whether the explosions were a terrorist attack and although casualties were reported, no further details were yet available.
Update:
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Ian Blair said authorities found found indications of explosives at the scene of one of the blasts and that there are concerns it was a coordinated terror attack.
PM Tony Blair said: “It is reasonably clear there have been a series of terrorist attacks in London.” There have been casualties, he said “both people that have died and people seriously injured.”
Our hearts are with the people of London and England, hoping that the damages are limited and that their loved ones are safe and unharmed.
like the world doesnt have enough problems already..
it is terrible..
there is just no excuse to such terrorism
This is terrible :(. London was still celebrating the 2012 olympics.
I’m very sad.
These explosions have been claimed by a group called Secret Organisation Group of al-Qaeda who quote the Koran to support their actions. This is ridiculous as all Muslims I know are horrified by the use of violence, whoever uses it, and say that it can never be justified against innocent people. My brother lives in London and thankfully he is okay, but what a contrast with yesterday when everyone was so happy because we had been awarded the Olympic games. We must show the terrorists that violence can never prevail.
This is a screenshot of the message posted in a forum claiming the responsibility of that group. The image won’t be available for a long time, I think:

It is really desgusting how these people think!
🙁 My heart goes out to the British and all those affected by this terrible, evil tragedy.
I’m confident the country will unite together for comfort and show that terrorism will not scare them and has no place in the UK.
