Terrorist Attack In India

Dozens Dead Hundreds Wounded

November 26. 2008

 

A group of radical terrorists attacked the city of Mumbai, India today, killing 80 people and wounding 900, according to a report in the Times Of India.

It was a coordinated attack that involved the landmark Taj Mahal hotel, a popular tourist restaurant, a train station and other citywide locations.

The terrorists also took hostages and some of them have reportedly been executed. When making their selections, they inquired who among the tourists had British or American passports.

This is truly sad. I wish people wouldn’t do things like this. It’s a terrible reminder of how dangerous the whole terrorism front is and how destructive it can be. Children were even wounded in the attack. My sympathies to the people of India and the tourists that have been harmed in this tragedy.

 

Terror attacks in Mumbai; 80 dead, over 900 injured

Mumbai came under an unprecedented night attack as terrorists used heavy machine guns, including AK-47s, and grenades to strike at the city's most high-profile targets -- the hyper-busy CST (formerly VT) rail terminus; the landmark Taj Hotel at the Gateway and the luxury Oberoi Trident at Nariman Point; the domestic airport at Santa Cruz; the Cama and GT hospitals near CST; the Metro Adlabs multiplex and Mazgaon Dockyard -- killing at least 80 and sending more than 900 to hospital, according to latest reports.
