on 7 july 2005 in the morning four separate suicide bombs exploded at approximately the same time in london. the first suicide bomb exploded on a london underground train close to aldgate station, the second suicide bomb exploded on a london underground train close to edgware road station, a third suicide bomb exploded on a london underground train close to king's cross/russell square stations. a fourth suicide bomb exploded almost one hour later on a double decker bus at tavistock square. it was originally thought there had been six rather than three explosions on the underground network as smoke billowed out of both ends of the tunnels. the bus brought the number to seven but this was clarified to four sites later in the day.
