This morning in London, a bomb went off on an Underground train near Parsons Green station. The bomb, described as "crude", was inside a plastic bucket, and reportedly included a timer. The blast reportedly sent a fireball through the carriage where the bomb had been placed. Whoever planted the bomb is still at large, and is suspected to be armed with knives and possibly a second bomb. At least 22 people are reported injured, some from the blast and some from the resulting panic.

UPDATE: 29 people are now reported as injured, and ISIS has claimed responsibility.
