7 bomb blasts have gone off around London this morning, including 6 on the London Underground, and 1 on a double-decker bus. Two have at least died with many more injuries, hospitals have gone into emergency status.
All underground and bus networks through London have been suspended, and has caused mass chaos in the streets of Central London. There are even thoughts that at least one of these was a suicide bombing.
Thoughts are that this is the work of Al Q'aeda... however no claims have yet been made, although Arab sources have revealed a page on Al Q'aeda's website referring to London bombs.
Very well timed, seeming as London won the Olympic bid yesterday, and also seeming as the G8 summit is about to be held at this current moment in time. The G8 meeting has been cancelled as far as I know, with Tony Blair heading back towards London.
