The Isle of Man is joining the UK today (Tuesday) in observing a one minute silence to mark the tenth anniversary of the terrorist attack that killed 52 people in London.


The silence is being observed at 11.30am, during a service at St Paul's Cathedral attended by the families of those who died in the bombings. On the morning of July 7, 2005, three tube trains and a bus were bombed by terrorists linked to al-Qaeda.
