'The Places Ee Live': sounds and images of slums in Caracas, Nairobi, Jakarta, and Mumbai.

Saturday, November 29, 2008



Huffington Post reports that Indian security forces have killed the last gunman in Mumbai, putting an end to the multi-day crisis. Cynical-C linked to the BBC's timeline of the attacks, and the New York Times coverage has been fairly good as well. The photo above comes from The Big Picture, which has some really striking photos.

The big question now seems to be the extent of Pakistan's involvement in the attacks, with varying reports all over. If Pakistan (or Pakistan's security apparatus, acting under its own authority) was involved, that will have very far-reaching consequences for the next few years.

The MetaFilter thread is, as usual, as good a source as any for information on the ongoing Mumbai terror attacks. A good and true comment from early on: "Twitter is coming of age here." Very true.

The Wikipedia page has done a good job compiling specific information on the attacks.

Horrible day.
