State of Alert in Europe

ROME - The whole of Europe was on alert Thursday following a series of bombings in London, Italian officials said, while security officials were assessing Italian security and Italy's airports raised their alert level to a maximum.
Italy's European commissioner called the explosions in central London on Thursday a terrorist strike against Europe.
The Italian Foreign Ministry said at least two Italians were injured in the blasts, without giving details.
"What has happened is the tragic confirmation that terrorism strikes once more at the heart of Europe," said Franco Frattini, Europe's commissioner for justice and home affairs, in comments reported by Italian news agencies and confirmed by his office.
