Landmine explosion kills 4 in Cambodia
Four villagers were killed and two others were wounded in a landmine explosion in northeast Cambodia's Mondulkiri province on Saturday, a mine clearance chief said.
An explosion took place inside a carriage of London’s iconic tube train on Friday morning leaving several passengers injured, officials said. The London Police said that there was a possibility that the blast was carried out by terrorists.
According to officials, the explosion occurred during the morning rush hour at around 8.15 am (local time) at the Parsons Green station in West London and led to a stampede.
A picture that has gone viral on social media showed a white container inside a supermarket bag with red wires, but did not appear to suggest extensive damage in the carriage.
