Al Jazeera reports that a car bomb exploded at a "domestic airport" in Mumbai, also that the terror attacks are still growing with new incidents being reported outside Mumbai. A police chief (unnamed) tells Reuters that gunmen still holed up in buildings, a confrontation between police and gunmen at a hospital (also unnamed). Gunmen have attacked at least 7 locations with AK-47's and explosives, new attacks reported at cinema, hotels and hospitals - at least 80 dead, over 250 injured throughout Mumbai. Taj hotel is one place where gunmen opened fire (per NDTV), a BP petrol station has been destroyed - large explosion.

Will add more as it comes in

8 sites now attacked. Spreading to suburbs and a loud blast about 10 minutes ago. The Indian army are on alert.

Just heard on the news on tv as I was getting up that there were gunmen shooting at a hospital somewhere.

Bout 20 aussies somewhere pinned down, didnt hear exactly where.

Anyone want to speculate as to why India was chosen as an attack point?

Hopefully this ends soon before more people are harmed.

Per Al Jazeera:

The taxi exploded on an express highway near Mumbai Airport, not on the property as earlier reported.

A European Parliamentary delegation is reportedly in the Taj Hotel where explosions are being reported

Oh my god...

I have relatives and friends in Mumbai.

This should not be happening, Mumbai is an amazing place, so different to any place on earth. The people are amazing and the hustle and bustle of the city is unlike anywhere i have ever been.

This is horrible. I'm shocked.

Gunmen have now opened fire inside the Marriott Hotel outside Mumbai, no details yet on casualties

Major Indian new channel now states that it is UNSAFE to be on the streets of Mumbai ANYWHERE.. It is requesting people to not group and rubberneck(common in such cases), not to go outside, and if outside find the nearest shop etc. and take cover..

Also sniper activity may be occurring.. victims seem to have been targetted from distances greater than 3-400 meters. People being shot in their homes in this area.. This is at Nariman House.. rooftop may have multiple snipers..

So they've got hostages and we're still waiting for authorities to assess the situation.

Who the hell are they?

What will they demand?

This is unreal. I can't believe it.

Ordo ab Chaos. This bit would be the chaos. Whoever is doing this is, in all probability, being funded by some rich neoimperialist somewhere, so now is the time to pay close atention to whats going on and not believe the mass media talking heads on anything beyond the death toll.

This is probably the swan dance of false flag terror, should be over soon. And then we will know what military-industrial complex was to blame. My guess is the British, via the Americans, with Zionist Khazarian aristocracy mixed in, but lets wait and see. Would be nice if people kept an eye on Indian news media over the next few weeks.

I am saddened that, as usual, innocent americans and english are being hit. I am even more saddened at the likelihood that their own countrymen engineered the events.

CNN just said 3 five- star hotels were hit and that Americans are the target. They are asking for specific room numbers where "westiners" are staying.

Taj Hotel..

People stuck in the hotel rooms were calling on their cell phones..

Now cell phones jammed and complete all TV/cable communication media cut off in the hotel..
People inside may not even know that they are in a hostage situation..
