Bomb attacks in london (1 Viewer)

[broken arm]

yeah most of the networks are down.

they may be pulled down to prevent co-ordination of other attacks or mobilephone detonators?

 

[Wavioli]

Yeah I sent some messages that got delivered, still no replys yet, apart from one email off a mate - he's ok. 1 down 5 to go... god I hope theyre ok.

 

[Bag'o'cans]

cant get through to fucking ANYBODY in london, this isnt good

Networks would all be jammed just like new years.

 

[glen]

remember 'casualties' doesn't always mean deaths!!!!

Hmmm, the figures are bound to escalate though. I mean, how could you be sitting on a bus when a bomb goes off and not loose a few limbs or something?

 

[jane]

glad to hear she's ok.

i think some of the networks are at limited capacity rather than off altogether.

Yeah, I feel kind of guilty, though, for some reason, that I could get through and so many people can't.

This is all so scary.

It's going to get much worse.

There is no way this isn't going to be used as an excuse for war.

update from sky news:

DEATHS IN TERROR ATTACKS

A number of people have been killed and dozens injured in a large-scale terrorist attack on London.

At least six bomb blasts have been reported in locations across the city on buses and Tube stations.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Ian Blair said there was evidence of explosives at at least one of the six sites.
Scotland Yard has denied reports they were warned of an attack by Israel minutes before the blasts.
Two people have been killed and at least 90 people were injured in the explosion at Aldgate Station.
Home Secretary Charles Clarke spoke of "terrible injuries".
Witness Belinda Seabrook said she saw an explosion rip though a bus as it approached Russell Square.
"I was on the bus in front and heard an incredible bang. I turned round and half the double decker bus was in the air," she said.



Bus destroyed by blast


Another witness, Angie, told Sky News: "There were a whole lot of people around the bus. Next thing I was on the floor and there were a lot of people on me.
"I thought I was going to be crushed. The bus was ripped out at the back. It must have been a bomb."
The entire Tube network has been shut down following the blasts at Aldgate, Edgware Road, King's Cross, Old Street and Russell Square.
It is understood several people have been wounded in the underground blasts, with one unconfirmed eyewitness telling Sky News he saw "bodies on the line".
British Transport Police confirmed there are "walking wounded" and said paramedics have responded to one report of a person classed as "life at risk".



Injured treated at Aldgate


"It's chaos, with people trying to work out what has happened," said a spokesman.
One witness said the packed underground train he was on was 200 metres from King's Cross when there was a huge flash.
The train stopped and people were using umberellas to smash windows of the trains. Passengers were led out of the train by underground staff.
He added people were milling around King's Cross covered in soot.
Clare Benson, 33, a city banker from Kensington, was on a tube at Edware Road where the second incident took place.
"I was in the last carriage at the back of the train nearest the tunnel when I heard a huge bang - you could feel it," she said.
"The lights went off for a couple of minutes and people were scared and wondering what to do.
"The drivers got out and were looking into the tunnel, then they announced that we should evacuate. My ears are still ringing and I was shaking."

I work in reception, where we have a TV. I've got Sky News on, and volume up. I'm getting really pissed off that my phones here are still hopping as usual with regular business. Everyone should just chill out, watch some telly and find out what the fuck is going on!
