London Bombings
The London Bombings refer to a series of coordinated terrorist attacks that occurred on July 7, 2005. Four suicide bombers targeted the city's public transport system, detonating explosives on three trains and a bus during the morning rush hour. The attacks resulted in 52 civilian deaths and over 700 injuries, marking one of the deadliest days in British history.
The bombings were carried out by members of a terrorist group linked to al-Qaeda. In response, the UK government increased security measures and launched investigations to prevent future attacks. The events significantly impacted public perception of terrorism and security in London and beyond.
