Terror Strikes Capital: Coordinated Embassy Bombings by Red K Militants Claim 231 Lives
Police say that Red K militants orchestrated near-simultaneous explosions outside the Krauanagazan and Zuhlgani Embassies in Ta’ana last evening. Two trucks laden with explosives targeted the diplomatic compounds, causing devastating casualties. At approximately 5 PM, the first truck detonated outside the Zuhlgani Embassy, only for a second truck to target the Krauanagazan Embassy seconds later. The first truck arrived and parked in a loading zone outside of the Zuhlgani Embassy, which prompted Zuhlgani embassy officials to approach the truck. Approximately 45 seconds later, a second identical truck is seen on traffic cameras passing the Zuhlgani Embassy, presumably en route to the Krauanagazan Embassy further down the street. This all occurred between 4:58:42 PM and 5:00:18 PM when the driver of the truck outside the Zuhlgani Embassy detonated the explosives in their vehicle, followed by at approximately 5:00:23 PM, a second detonation directly in front of the main gate to the Krauanagazan Embassy down the street. Authorities report that as of 10:37 AM today 231 people have been killed, with 987 individuals injured. Authorities anticipate these numbers to rise as search and rescue operations persist throughout the day.
