NEW DELHI (XFN-ASIA) - Two cities in India may be targetted for attack by Al-Qaeda militants ahead of next week's Independence Day celebrations, the US embassy in New Delhi warned.
There may be attacks by Al-Qaeda in 'New Delhi and Mumbai (Bombay) in the days leading to the Independence Day,' embassy spokesman David Kennedy told CNN-IBN news channel.
Kennedy said the information is based on intelligence gathered along with the Indian government.
Serial train bombings in Bombay on July 11, blamed by the government on Islamic militant groups, killed 183 people and injured almost 900.
So true. It wasn't long ago we were worried that the 2 nations were going to start nuking each other.
I do find it interesting that the London liquid bomb terrorists were to attack on 8/22.
just to be clear, according to the news, it was slated for 8/16. But I find it interesting it was so close to the 8/22 date, along with several others.
