There were only four explosions in total but two trains were involved in one, and another was between stations so people are evacuating from separate stations thus leading people to assume they are two separate explosions. Different news from different sources though. There were seven explosions in 4 places according to the Met Police.

Lee McB Van Basten's nephew... 07 Jul 05 2.55pm
As the BBC understand it (straight from the news on the TV): 8:49am loud bangs heard at Liverpool Street station and Aldgate station. Later believed to be the same explosion, though could be separate. Minutes later, explosion at Edgware. Tube shut down. Explosion reported on Double Decker bus in Tavistock Square, near Russell Square. Further explosions reported at Liverpool Street and Aldgate, but again these were believed to be the same single explosion reported earlier. Total explosions actually now believed to be just four. Still just two confirmed deaths, though other uncomfirmed reports of people dead elsewhere. Hundreds injured, many critical.

All i need to hear, my dad is working there right now but i do see your point of view. Edited by Bedge (07 Jul 2005 1:42pm) I'd hazard a guess that anything outside of Zone 1 London is people getting scared at the mere sight of a plastic bag in the street. It is a time of worry but use some logic and common sense people! Look at Madrid, Bali, New York - they didn't hit suburbs, they hit popular work/tourist areas. Plus they always hit overground - the pictures speak more words than anything else ever can. There is a pattern to the attacks. I'm sure your dad is fine Bedge. That's what I said, you need to stop worrying Mark, they are not even going to bother with CJ. 2004 VAUXHALL CORSA SXI FOR SALE, PLEASE PM FOR MORE DETAILS.

The home office has only confirmed 4 at the moment. Howver, I believe they are waiting for more evidence at each site to prove it to be a terrorist attack at the respective sites, eg-explosive device remaines As Danny Butterfield wheeled away, arms aloft in celebration of his third goal – an expression of delight and astonishment on his face – a man seated beside me in the stands turned to his young son and told him that he would remember this moment for the rest of his life.
