Terrorists Strike India

22:58 EST Update

The live feeds have gone down.  Apparently the Indian Army has asked the news crews to stop broadcasting.  Sounds like it's time for a full S.W.A.T.-style assault.

21:38 EST Update

NDTV is reporting that Indian Commandos are moving in and renewed fire can be heard in the hotel.

I have e-mailed the Indian Embassy in D.C. to see if there is a fund to donate to support the victims of the attacks.

Original Post

I'm late to the game on this one.  Earlier today Mumbai, India was attacked by teams of terrorists who assaulted a Police HQ, a hospital, a railway station, and two hotels.  As I am writing this, hostages are still being held at the Taj and Trident hotels, 9 terrorists are captured, 3 killed, and 2 escaped.  The Indian Army is reported to have deployed to three different locations, and is pushing the media further from the hotels.

Information first gleaned from Ace of Spades.  I am currently watching the NDTV english online video feed.
