Mass Knife Attack Injures 10 on UK London-Bound Train

News summary

A mass stabbing occurred on a London-bound train traveling from Doncaster to King's Cross, resulting in 10 people being hospitalized, nine with life-threatening injuries. The train made an emergency stop at Huntingdon Station in Cambridgeshire, where two suspects were arrested and counter-terrorism police joined the investigation, although early assessments suggest it was an isolated incident. Witnesses described scenes of panic and bloodshed, with some passengers heroically intervening to protect others. British Transport Police and emergency services launched a major response, transporting multiple victims to hospitals. The incident has been condemned by Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who called it "appalling and deeply concerning," while highlighting ongoing efforts to curb knife crime, which has been rising in England and Wales despite government measures including severe penalties and blade seizures. Train services along the route are disrupted as investigations continue, with authorities urging the public to maintain normal activities while remaining vigilant.
