Several people have been injured after explosions on the Underground network and a double-decker bus in London.
A police spokesman said there were "quite a large number of casualties" at Aldgate Tube Station.

And Scotland Yard confirmed one of several reports of explosions on buses in the city - in Tavistock Place - but said the cause was not yet known.

One caller to BBC Five said his friend had seen "the bus ripped open like a can of sardines and bodies everywhere."

PA also quoted union officials as saying sources had told them there had been at least one explosive device on the Underground.

[...]

Scotland Yard confirmed they were assisting with a "major incident" and said there were casualties.

the news to which i woke (i'm in london at the moment) was that of a report of a "blast" on the tube near liverpool street station, thought to be the result of a power surge.

in the past hour, the news has obviously changed dramatically. i wonder if anyone will soon claim responsibility.

are all the london-area posters okay?
