If you were a passenger on that train, it sounds as if you are very lucky to be alive.

I stand corrected: seems this small bucket sent quite a wall of fire out, burning many:

Let's see. You are on a subway. Terrorist explosion malfunctions and you have all the air burned off your head. (there are pictures of it already) Then there is the ensuing panic in this very crowded train (commuting rush hour) .

That is life threatening no matter how hard you try to minimize it because it doesn't fit your narrative.

Being a burn victim is a piece of cake.

According to the Guardian.

It was a terrorist IED , that only partially blew up.

23 people are in the hospital. Thankfully nobody has died yet.

Amazing that the anti-Trumpists have already come into this topic and tried to minimize what happened.

There was the attack in Manchester, the Westminster Bridge Attack, the London Bridge Attack, the van driven at Muslims at Finsbury Park by a man from Cardiff and the current Tube device.

So it is five, although only two were confirmed Islamic attacks in London, as we still await confirmation of who has carried out the latest attempted bombing.
