On Monday, a car explosion at a metro station at the famous Red Fort monument in Delhi, India, claimed the lives of at least ten people. According to Dr. Manish Kumar Jha, a doctor at the nearby Lok Nayak Hospital, around thirty additional persons were “badly injured” in the explosion. He said to reporters, “Many are not in a position of recovering.”

Americans are being advised by the US embassy in New Delhi to stay away from crowds and the surrounding region.
