Mumbai blasts: Indian cities on high alert
Indian cities are high alert after three blasts shook the financial capital Mumbai (Bombay), killing 18 people and injuring dozens.
Indian PM Manmohan has appealed to the people of Mumbai "to remain calm and show a united face".No group has said it carried out the attacks, which took place in three districts during the evening rush hour.
The attacks are the deadliest in India since 2008, when gunmen killed 165 people in a three-day raid in Mumbai.
Pakistani-based militants were blamed for the November 2008 attacks and peace efforts were derailed. The government in Islamabad was quick to condemn the latest bombings.
