Share prices have dropped across Europe after a number of blasts rocked tube stations and buses across London.
The UK's benchmark FTSE 100 share index tumbled 105.92 points, or 3%, to 5,072. In France, Germany, Holland and Spain indexes all declined more than 2.5%.

The pound also dipped, while many investors sought safety in the Swiss franc and commodities such as gold. The price of crude oil dropped in London.

City firms including Deutsche Bank and the London Clearing House evacuated.

City-wide problem

Several people have been injured after explosions on the Underground network and a double-decker bus in London.

British Transport Police said some of the power surges had caused explosions.

A police spokesman said there were "quite a large number of casualties" at Aldgate Tube Station.

"There is always a bit of a scare when these kinds of incidents happen, especially after the Olympics announcement yesterday," one trader said.

"Everyone is already a bit worried today about the high oil price, there's a bit of uncertainty, the G8 is on today, so there's a bit of profit taking."

The shockwaves were felt as far away as South Africa, where shares dropped more than 1.8%.

"This is all on the back on the London underground incidents, and particularly the bus blast," said one Johannesburg trader.

"The market is getting pretty panicked. It's the uncertainty that is worrying everyone."

FTSE is dropping mad

DVTimes · 07-07-2005, 03:25 AM

I was on a westbound Central Line tube that was stuck underground in the Liverpool St area for quite some time. It did not stop at 2 stations (Liverpool St & Bank) and we finally managed to get to St Pauls and were told to evacuate. To me it seems too much of a coincidence that this type of incident has happened the day after London has won the Olympics.
Aaron Davis, London

I've just seen people coming out of Aldgate station covered in soot and blood; some of them clearly in shock. People are just walking off into the streets with soot and blood and their clothing and faces. Emergency services are in attendance. One man told me there had been an explosion on the Circle line and he described it as "horrible down there."
David Marsland, London

Euston underground has had a similar experience. I was about to buy my ticket when we were told to evacuate due to overcrowding of the station. Of course, one knew that this was not quite the case when streams of police ran down the pavement, piling out of vans that were stuck in traffic and heading towards the station building. I walked to my office just off Oxford Street and was told that further explosions had occured, one on a bus - I hope to God that that report was unfounded. All I'm hearing now is the sound of emergency vehicles. It certainly doesn't sound like power surges to me.
Dave Tanner, Birmingham

I was getting off the west bound central line at Liverpool street station at about 8.50. Halfway up the escalator, I felt the stairs shake a little and then there was a cloud of smoke that shot up from underneath the stairs. The alarm went off and people went crazy and just run out of the station.
Jota Branco, London

All tube lines had been suspended due to a power surge

Michael Stevens, London
I was on the tube from Highbury and Islington on the Victoria line at about 9.05am. When I boarded the train the driver announced that Kings Cross St Pancras had been re-opened. En route, the driver made a second announcement that he had received the wrong message and that the train would not stop at KC St Pancrass after all. When we got to Oxford Circus, an announcement was made that all tube lines had been suspended due to a power surge and we were "advised" to continue our journeys on land routes because it was unclear how long the delay would last. Not many people left the tube, but further messages "strongly advised" us to leave, and most did. As I walked from the station I overheard a walkie-talkie message that said something about "evacuating" the station. Outside of the station, most people we were on mobile phones to tell their workplaces they would be late, others were checking maps for bus routes. There definitely didn't seem to be any panic, but as I walked down Oxford Street (about 9.40am) there were so many sirens that people began asking others what had happened. There was definitely a sense of uneasiness that set in.
Michael Stevens, London

I got in at Liverpool Street at 8.55, just in time to be evacuated. One lady said that "there was a thump and everyone started running". Transport Police directed me to Moorgate, saying that I could get a train there - erroneously as it turned out, but I could get a bus. Staff at Moorgate said there was "a massive power failure", before locking up and going below to get people off of the trains in the tunnels. People are taking this in their stride, but when I left Moorgate, the pavements were all but gridlocked, and the buses were full to bursting point - I started my journey sitting on the stairs.
Phil Culmer, Southend on Sea

I work on Old Broad Street, just off Liverpool St. We have been instructed not to leave the building and police have cleared the immediate surrounding streets. At least no reports of any demise yet.
Savio Correia-Afonso, London UK

I boarded a southward bound Northern Line train at Euston. By the time we reached Kings Cross there were announcements asking people to evacuate the station. People on the train were advised that the train would not be stopping. This was as a result of a power surge. The guard was apologetic for the inconvenience and that further information could not be given other than to say that they would stop at the first available station. This turned out to be London Bridge. Passengers were calm and generally well humoured.
Liz Cleary-Rodriguez, London, England

I arrived at Bank station at about 08.50. At 08.54 an announcement was given over the p.a system saying that the whole station was shutting down, and passengers were being urgently requested to leave the station. Judging by the queues that formed to get out, people were taking heed, although everyone behaved very calmly. However, a few people seemed to still be moving towards platforms. I had the impression they were tourists on the whole, who either didn't understand the message, or didn't have the awareness of potential risk that most of us in London now share.
Damian Griffiths, Lewisham

Our train from waterloo via Kew Bridge was delayed, we where told it was due to a suspicious package at waterloo.
Anonymous, Wimbledon

I was on the Piccadilly line when the tube just pulled out of Kings Cross around 8.45. A huge bang and the train jolted the lights went off and the carriages filled with smoke/dust. We were stuck there for 40 minutes some people we're getting desperate and kicked through a window eventually we were led down the carriages and through the tunnels on the way out. It seemed very peculiar when we were evacuated out of the station. There also seemed a lot of police around. A few people were injured and everyone covered in dust.... As I walked to work there was a huge explosion in the Russell Square Euston region...
Stuart Turner, London

I was on the Met line when it pulled into Moorgate station, all the platform and train lights were out except for the few emergency backup lights. We were told to leave the station without any explanation. Buses are packed and hundreds of people are now walking to work like walking trains.
Stephen Swan, Rayleigh, UK

Work for a passenger car company... getting phone calls from drivers all over the capital to inform us that there is zero movement!
Sean Robinson, London

I was on the train at Liverpool Street station when there was a huge bang. The train shook slightly and the lights went out. Everyone was told to hurry out of the station, but no-one was told what was happening. I walked to another station to find that too had been closed. It was actually very frightening.
Anonymous

It's chaos here, no-one seems to no exactly what has happened at the moment - most people seem to be turning around and heading out of town.
Rob

I was on the tube going to Aldgate East, and we were asked to vacate at Moorgate. I couldn't see any smoke or hurt people at all, and everyone was leaving the station in a very orderly and calm manner. It wasn't until we got out of the station and up to Liverpool St station that we saw all the police, which made it hit home that something was very wrong, as I have never seen that many police and that number of stations blocked off in the 8 years I have been in London.
Marc Kershaw, Letchworth, Hertfordshire

There are many fire engines and ambulances rushing past the window of my building. There are a lot of people phoning loved ones to make sure they are ok. Feels a bit like September 11th all over again here.
Amy Hinkley, London

My thoughts exactly

DVTimes · 07-07-2005, 03:52 AM

Sounds like many got injured from getting out of the tubs in panic (such as getting cuts as they climbed through broken glass windows) rather than from the bombs.

No children reported injured.

DVTimes · 07-07-2005, 03:54 AM

Reporters' Log: London explosions
There have been several explosions on the London Underground Tube network this morning, and on a bus in central London. BBC News correspondents are on the scene with the latest details.

Nick Thatcher: Royal London Hospital: 1130 BST
The Royal London Hospital have been receiving casualties all morning. This is a major hospital in East London. There's an air ambulance landing on the roof behind me. There are buses behind me which have come from the Kings Cross area in central London. On board are walking wounded who have been ferried here.

Jon Brain : Edgware Road : 1115 BST

There's been a scene of chaos and confusion all morning here but it's beginning to settle down. The entire area around the tube station has been sealed off and there are dozens of emergency vehicles here.

We've seen a number of walking wounded emerge from the station, many of them covered with blood and obviously quite distraught. They are being treated at a hotel opposite the tube station.

The concern now is whether there are still people trapped inside the tube station underground. I've seen a team of paramedics go into the station in the last half hour.

It could have been much worse:

COPS FOIL AL-QAEDA DIRTY BOMB OUTRAGE

Apr 17 2005

Plot to devastate General Election

Exclusive By Barry Wigmore And Euan Stretch

POLICE have foiled an al-Qaeda plot to bring chaos to the General Election with a radioactive "dirty bomb".

They believe targets included Westminster Abbey, the Heathrow Express, the London Underground, pubs, railway stations and sports stadiums. An un-named synagogue was mentioned - and so was the idea of hijacking a petrol tanker to smash it into a building.

A dirty bomb is radioactive material wrapped around a core of high explosive. It would not lead to a nuclear explosion, but could turn a large area of a town into a radioactive wasteland for decades.

The plot was discovered as a result of close co-operation between British, American, and Pakistani security services and a year-long surveillance operation.

American reports say British police found a cache of household smoke detectors which it is believed terrorists wanted to cannibalise for the radioactive chemical americium-241 that they contain.

Terrorism experts say that exploding even a small amount of radioactive material in a crowded underground station or sports stadium would trigger sensitive radiation sensors, causing panic and probably many deaths in the crowds and long-lasting contamination.

The bomb plan was just one of several plots uncovered by the investigation.

Former US Attorney General John Ashcroft referred to it in a recent interview with Newsweek magazine.

-METROPOLITAN Police Commissioner Sir Ian Blair today called for new laws and technology like ID cards to help track terror suspects.

Bullshit. When will you people get through your thick heads that these people hate us, they would have hated us anyway, they want us dead, period. A diiferent foreign policy would not make any difference, why the fuck do you think Paris is on a state of alert? Why does places like France, Germany, Canada etc etc also have terrorist cells?

According to the BBC, the European Al Qua'ida website has claimed responsibility for the bombings (confirmed as 6 underground stations and 1 bus) and that their statement is being analyzed.

Interestingly, the BBC also comment that the bombs appear to have been set very precisely to cause maximum disruption but little loss of life, which as they point out is untypical of other bombings by mid-east factions. The IRA come to mind, but I thought things were quiet on that front these days? Since moving over here, I must admit I haven't kept up with Europe's "homegrown" terrorists. Are there any other likely candidates?

Bullshit: you.
Spain had troops in Iraq, Britain still has. Why do you think they get targetted and not Canada, Germany or Japan? Cells are everywhere (the 9/11 ones where in Germany and Spain) but the Madrid massacre was claimed by the terrorists as a revenge for the war in Iraq. This attack will see the same message.

The extremely badly managed, illegal and imperialist war in Iraq over lies, the torturing of Iraqis by the US, the killing of Iraqi civilians and the corrupt Iraqi puppet regime are the best recruitment campaigns Al-Qaeda can dream of. Even the CIA has started saying that.

Iraq was terrorist free, now the US and the UK have turned it into a terrorist playground at the cost of the Iraqi people and the shrinking coalition troops that are unfortunate enough to be sitting duck there because their only mission is to give their lives for making the neocons richer by having them rob Iraq from its natural ressources.
Time for a pullout.

Even if you don?t agree with the war you can surely see that a pullout at this point would leave a base camp for terrorists. It?s just too late for that kind of action, it must be finished now. Regardless, London my thoughts are with you.

At least no reports of any demise yet. Savio Correia-Afonso, London UK I boarded a southward bound Northern Line train at Euston. By the time we reached Kings Cross there were announcements asking people to evacuate the station. People on the train were advised that the train would not be stopping. This was as a result of a power surge. The guard was apologetic for the inconvenience and that further information could not be given other than to say that they would stop at the first available station. This turned out to be London Bridge. Passengers were calm and generally well humoured. Liz Cleary-Rodriguez, London, England I arrived at Bank station at about 08.50. At 08.54 an announcement was given over the p.a system saying that the whole station was shutting down, and passengers were being urgently requested to leave the station. Judging by the queues that formed to get out, people were taking heed, although everyone behaved very calmly. However, a few people seemed to still be moving towards platforms. I had the impression they were tourists on the whole, who either didn't understand the message, or didn't have the awareness of potential risk that most of us in London now share. Damian Griffiths, Lewisham Our train from waterloo via Kew Bridge was delayed, we where told it was due to a suspicious package at waterloo. Anonymous, Wimbledon I was on the Piccadilly line when the tube just pulled out of Kings Cross around 8.45. A huge bang and the train jolted the lights went off and the carriages filled with smoke/dust. We were stuck there for 40 minutes some people we're getting desperate and kicked through a window eventually we were led down the carriages and through the tunnels on the way out. It seemed very peculiar when we were evacuated out of the station. There also seemed a lot of police around. A few people were injured and everyone covered in dust.... As I walked to work there was a huge explosion in the Russell Square Euston region... Stuart Turner, London I was on the Met line when it pulled into Moorgate station, all the platform and train lights were out except for the few emergency backup lights. We were told to leave the station without any explanation. Buses are packed and hundreds of people are now walking to work like walking trains. Stephen Swan, Rayleigh, UK Work for a passenger car company... getting phone calls from drivers all over the capital to inform us that there is zero movement! Sean Robinson, London I was on the train at Liverpool Street station when there was a huge bang. The train shook slightly and the lights went out. Everyone was told to hurry out of the station, but no-one was told what was happening. I walked to another station to find that too had been closed. It was actually very frightening. Anonymous It's chaos here, no-one seems to no exactly what has happened at the moment - most people seem to be turning around and heading out of town. Rob I was on the tube going to Aldgate East, and we were asked to vacate at Moorgate. I couldn't see any smoke or hurt people at all, and everyone was leaving the station in a very orderly and calm manner. It wasn't until we got out of the station and up to Liverpool St station that we saw all the police, which made it hit home that something was very wrong, as I have never seen that many police and that number of stations blocked off in the 8 years I have been in London. Marc Kershaw, Letchworth, Hertfordshire There are many fire engines and ambulances rushing past the window of my building. There are a lot of people phoning loved ones to make sure they are ok. Feels a bit like September 11th all over again here. Amy Hinkley, London http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/talking_point/4659237.stm __________________ The Affiliate Program

It will also loose millions this year from tourists. Also if the tube itself has been damaged. __________________ The Affiliate Program

BBC News correspondents are on the scene with the latest details. Nick Thatcher: Royal London Hospital: 1130 BST The Royal London Hospital have been receiving casualties all morning. This is a major hospital in East London. There's an air ambulance landing on the roof behind me. There are buses behind me which have come from the Kings Cross area in central London. On board are walking wounded who have been ferried here. Jon Brain : Edgware Road : 1115 BST There's been a scene of chaos and confusion all morning here but it's beginning to settle down. The entire area around the tube station has been sealed off and there are dozens of emergency vehicles here. We've seen a number of walking wounded emerge from the station, many of them covered with blood and obviously quite distraught. They are being treated at a hotel opposite the tube station. The concern now is whether there are still people trapped inside the tube station underground. I've seen a team of paramedics go into the station in the last half hour. __________________ The Affiliate Program

They believe targets included Westminster Abbey, the Heathrow Express, the London Underground, pubs, railway stations and sports stadiums. An un-named synagogue was mentioned - and so was the idea of hijacking a petrol tanker to smash it into a building. A dirty bomb is radioactive material wrapped around a core of high explosive. It would not lead to a nuclear explosion, but could turn a large area of a town into a radioactive wasteland for decades. The plot was discovered as a result of close co-operation between British, American, and Pakistani security services and a year-long surveillance operation. American reports say British police found a cache of household smoke detectors which it is believed terrorists wanted to cannibalise for the radioactive chemical americium-241 that they contain. Terrorism experts say that exploding even a small amount of radioactive material in a crowded underground station or sports stadium would trigger sensitive radiation sensors, causing panic and probably many deaths in the crowds and long-lasting contamination. The bomb plan was just one of several plots uncovered by the investigation. Former US Attorney General John Ashcroft referred to it in a recent interview with Newsweek magazine. -METROPOLITAN Police Commissioner Sir Ian Blair today called for new laws and technology like ID cards to help track terror suspects. http://www.sundaymirror.co.uk/news/t...name_page.html __________________ The Affiliate Program

jayeff Confirmed User Join Date: May 2001 Posts: 2,944	According to the BBC, the European Al Qua'ida website has claimed responsibility for the bombings (confirmed as 6 underground stations and 1 bus) and that their statement is being analyzed. Interestingly, the BBC also comment that the bombs appear to have been set very precisely to cause maximum disruption but little loss of life, which as they point out is untypical of other bombings by mid-east factions. The IRA come to mind, but I thought things were quiet on that front these days? Since moving over here, I must admit I haven't kept up with Europe's "homegrown" terrorists. Are there any other likely candidates?

Especially as I suspect that those who finance Al Qaeda will be living in London. __________________ The Affiliate Program
