India terror attack continues

Indian soldiers are reportedly still trying to free people trapped by suspected Muslim militants who attacked at least 10 targets in India\'s financial capital of Mumbai, killing 125 people.



More than 300 people were also wounded in last night’s highly coordinated attacks by bands of gunmen.



They invaded two five star hotels, a popular restaurant, a crowded train station, a Jewish center and at least five other sites.



The gunmen were armed with assault rifles, hand grenades and explosives.



A previously unknown Islamic militant group has since claimed responsibility for the massacre.



Among the dead were at least one Australian, a Japanese and a British national.



The Italian Foreign Ministry in Rome said an Italian was also killed.



Officials say eight militants were also killed during the shootings.



The gunmen also seized the high-profile Taj Mahal Palace and Tower hotel, as well as the Mumbai headquarters of the ultra-orthodox Jewish outreach group Chabad Lubavitch.



The Oberoi Hotel, another five-star landmark was also targeted.



Several hostages including a child have since been freed from one of the buildings.



However up to 50 hostages are said to be in the buildings.
