Indian Commandos Raid Terrorist-held hotels
A Mumbai anti crime branch officer prepares for an operation near the Taj Hotel in Mumbai November 28, 2008. Indian commandos fought to regain control of India's commercial capital, Mumbai, on Thursday after a highly-coordinated attack by armed militants that the prime minister blamed on a "terrorist" group outside the country. Police said 119 people were killed and 315 were wounded when a small army of gunmen -- at least some of whom arrived by sea -- fanned out across Mumbai to attack sites popular with tourists and businessmen, including two luxury hotels. Commandos were fighting room-to-room battles in the two hotels to rescue people trapped by the militants, police said.REUTERS/Jayanta Shaw (INDIA) News on Thu Nov 27
