Mumbai Train Blasts


Seven bombs hit Bombay's commuter rail network during rush hour .... killing 131 people and wounding more than 300 in what authorities called a well-coordinated terrorist attack..... bombings, which came in quick succession — a common tactic employed by Kashmiri militants....... Chaos engulfed the crowded rail network in India's financial capital following the blasts that ripped apart train compartments ...... authorities struggled to treat the wounded amid heavy monsoon downpours. Doors and windows were blown off the train cars, and witnesses said body parts were strewn near stations....... Luggage and debris were spattered with blood. Survivors clutched bandages to their heads and faces, and some frantically dialed their cell phones....... bystanders carrying victims to ambulances and searching wreckage for survivors and bodies.... Bombay bombings came hours after a series of grenade attacks by Islamic extremists killed eight people in the main city of India's part of Kashmir ....... Police also reportedly carried out raids across the country following the Bombay blasts....... authorities had had some information that an attack was coming, "but place and time was not known." ...... all the blasts had hit first-class cars..... all train service had been suspended and appealed to the public to stay away from stations in the city of 16 million people ........ Pakistani President Gen. Pervez Musharraf offered condolences over the loss of life, the Foreign Ministry said, adding: "Terrorism is a bane of our times and it must be condemned, rejected and countered effectively and comprehensively." ...... Accusations of Pakistani involvement in a 2001 attack on India's parliament put the nuclear-armed rivals on the brink of a fourth war
