London explosions kill 2, injure 90
GLENEAGLES, Scotland, July 7 (Xinhuanet) -- British
Prime Minister Tony Blair Thursday left the Group of Eight summit by helicopter
to be briefed on the attacks in London, but the G8 summit will continue.
Britain's Home Secretary Charles Clarke confirmed that there were four explosions in central London on
Thursday.
Speaking at the House of Commons, Clarke said three
were on subway trains and the fourth was on a bus.
"We do not know who or what organizations are
responsible for these terrible criminal acts," the home secretary said.
Latest reports said at least 10 people have been
killed in the explosions and 185 injured in a wave of apparently coordinated
bomb attacks across the British capital. Enditem |
