On Monday evening, a car explosion near New Delhi's historic Red Fort resulted in the deaths of at least eight people and injuries to several others. The blast is believed to have originated from a Hyundai i20 car stopped at a traffic signal, causing a fire that damaged multiple nearby vehicles and rickshaws. Authorities have not yet determined the cause but have registered a case under anti-terrorism laws, indicating a potential terror angle. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, currently in Bhutan, condemned the incident and promised a thorough investigation to 'get to the bottom of this conspiracy,' ensuring that those responsible will be brought to justice. Security officials are inspecting the site as investigations continue.
