Explosion on Tube Train in London

There was an explosion on the Tube train at Parsons Green in London at around 8:00 in the morning.

The fire department and the London Ambulance Service were called to the site at 8:20 A.M. There was a lot of chaos and commotion as people believed a bomb had exploded and wanted to get out of the station as fast as possible.

Reports suggest that it was a fireball kept inside a bucket in a plastic bag on the floor of the train that exploded.

At 10:13 A.M., the Met Police reported that it was investigating the incident as a terrorist attack. It was also reported that a number of people were injured but a number has not been revealed.

The train service has temporarily been shut and all the passengers from the station were escorted out from rear exits.

The explosion resulted in a lot of people getting burnt and pictures on social media were shared of people's hair falling off.

The Prime Minister Theresa May has called for a Cobra (Cabinet Office briefing room A) meeting this afternoon to discuss the terror attack.
