Breaking: new bombings in London, reports of nail bombs

Reports are starting to spred of nail bombs being detonated in London, perhaps in new rounds of terrorist attacks.

The Sydney Morning Herald is running the Reuters report here. One channel here has just switched to a Sky News feed. Appeal running on the bottom of the screen for people to send pictures or video if they’ve got it. Poor taste.

The Guardian Newsblog is running regular updates as the story breaks here. Other blog reports here, here and here.

Update: Podbat has good coverage

    Sky News is very good, much better than this non-private BBC.

    I wish there could be some banner/button that I could put on my blog to show support for London and for UK!

    Thanks, Duncan, I only heard on the Herald. SYNTAGMA is now on the case!
