'Those who tried to divide us failed,' says Starmer on 20th anniversary of attacks
- On 7 July 2005, coordinated suicide attacks carried out by four British Islamist extremists targeted three London Underground trains and a double-decker bus, resulting in 52 deaths and hundreds of injuries.
- The attacks targeted Aldgate, Edgware Road, Russell Square stations, and Tavistock Square, with the bus bomb exploding about an hour after the train blasts.
- The 20th anniversary commemorations on 7th July 2025 featured a service at St Paul’s Cathedral with attendance from Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, London Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan, members of the Royal Family, survivors, emergency personnel, and families of the victims.
- Starmer said the bombers 'tried to divide the nation but failed' and honored the courage of emergency services and unity of Londoners, while King Charles III prayed for all whose lives were changed.
- Tony Blair noted the UK is safer now but warned the ideology persists, and officials emphasized continued threats from Islamist and right-wing extremism urging ongoing national unity and resilience.
