Several people were injured at a London underground station on Friday, after an explosion on a rush hour commuter tube train.

The London Ambulance service said 18 people had been taken to a number of different hospitals on Friday morning, while no-one is believed to have suffered "serious or life-threatening" injuries.

London police said they were treating the blast at Parsons Green tube station in West London as a terrorist incident.

An unverified image on social media appeared to show a white bucket on fire inside a supermarket bag on the floor of one train carriage. The same picture does not seem to show extensive damage to the train.

Metropolitan Police Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley said it was an improvised explosive device and most of those injured had "flash burns". The scene currently remains cordoned off and the investigation continues.

"It is very much a live investigation we are following down the lines of inquiry," Rowley said.

Prime Minister Theresa May tweeted, "My thoughts are with those injured at Parsons Green and emergency services who are responding bravely to this terrorist incident."

Considering London's large muzzie population AND muzzie mayor ... I will guess this is the beginning of the final putsch to take Great Britain altogether.

The Royals would do well to begin the armed barricade within their walls.

Could certainly be ROP, but this seems so amatuer. Very ineffective. Makes me wonder if someone is doing a false flag, especially considering that last attack on a mosque.

If that is the extent of her thoughts on this issue, the Brits are screwed. Mohammedan jihadists are planting and detonating IED's in her mass transit infrastructure during rush hour, and she offers her citizens cliche'd social media platitudes.

Yes, it seems to have been a bomb that burned rather than fully exploding, so that there were around 18-20 flash burn injuries. Lucky it was not a lot worse, but bad enough for those affected (horribly painful).

“amateur” does not make it any less likely to be ROP. They all have to start somewhere. Some get a lot of training but others are more self-taught from internet sources etc.

This clearly indicates a bomb-maker is on the loose and he will get better with practice and experience if he is not caught quickly.

Part and parcel of living in a big city. No big deal.

I am so sick of these God damn muslims already.

They were blowing up children at kiddy bopper concerts just a few short months ago. If that wasn’t enough to drive the vermin out, then this won’t do it either.

we had several ineffective attempts at attacks in the US when obama was squatting in the WH (underwear bomber/SUV in NYC)...

London train explosion treated as terror incident

That is patently offensive. It should be treated as "cultural enrichment" until proven otherwise.

Bastards!

A Churchill would have turned the island inside-out after such an atrocity. A great number of Satan's minions would have ended up deported, imprisoned or DEAD.

Another mucking fuzzie sets a bomb. No surprise there. Ho hum, the brits will just ignore it and say that it’s worth it to preserve multiculturalism or some such nonsense. The muzzy mayor will laugh it off and refuse to condemn his fanatical savage co-religionists.
And life continues as before.

It appears the bomb was a "near fizzle." The explosives did not go ka-boom!, but burned like an oversized "safe and sane" firework. If it really did go off as intended, it could have blown a hole in the side of the train.
