Blasts in London



A series of explosions ripped through London's transport system today as suspected terrorist attacks on tube trains and a bus plunged the capital into chaos.

The prime minister,Tony Blair, said it was "reasonably clear" that the blasts were the work of terrorists, and added that it was "particularly barbaric" that attacks had been timed to coincide with the start of the G8 summit. He said he would leave Gleneagles, in Scotland, to return to London.

The home secretary, Charles Clarke, confirmed that there had been four blasts: one on a tube train between Aldgate and Liverpool Street, one on a train between Russell Square and King's Cross, one on a train at Edgware Road station, and the last on a bus at Tavistock Square.
