Attacks on Mumbai
« on: November 28, 2008, 12:54:09 AM »
I don't know if anybody else is keeping track of the news.  But there has been a lot of terrorist attacks on Mumbai.  I just wish to bring this to all your attention.  It is very sad to see what is happening in the name of religion.



-------

Indian forces are clearing the last gunmen from two luxury hotels in Mumbai and a Jewish centre more than 30 hours after a series of devastating attacks in the city killed more than 130 people.

Keep up with events as they unfold here. All times are in GMT.

0555 Lt Gen N Thamburaj, head of the Indian army's Southern Command, tells reporters the Taj Mahal Palace hotel's new building has been cleared and handed over to police. He says there is believed to be one gunman holding out in the older, "heritage" part of the hotel, and that one or two hostages are still in there with him. Gen Thamburaj says the gunman is moving around on two floors, where he has cut off the electricity. A number of hotel rooms remain locked from the inside, possibly by guests who are hiding there.

0525 India's Times Now channel says the army has taken complete control of the Oberoi hotel releasing the last 30 hostages, most of them foreigners.

0500 Times Now channel reports that a US official is among those being held at the Oberoi hotel. The channel also says many of those trapped are without food and water.

0425 More guests are being evacuated from the Oberoi hotel, eyewitnesses quoted by Reuters news agency say.

0410 Deathtoll from attacks rises to 130, police quoted by AFP say.

0251 Commandos are tentatively moving down through the five-storey Jewish centre building, the BBC's David Loyn reports.
0249 A spokesman for the group whose members are believed to be in the Jewish centre said members around the world were praying for a safe outcome.

0231 Snipers are reportedly shooting from buildings opposite the Jewish centre.

0210 Indian television shows footage of commandos being lowered from a helicopter onto the roof of the Jewish centre. There are still an unknown number of hostages inside. Troops also move in at ground level.

0120 Indian commandos have cleared the Oberoi hotel, Indian TV reports.

0155 Indian commandos move to take Jewish centre where a number of hostages are being held.
