Thursday, November 27, 2008, (London)

Strongly condemning the terror attacks in Mumbai, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown on Wednesday said the "outrageous" attacks in Mumbai will be met with a "vigorous response".

"I have sent a message to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh that the UK stands solidly with his government as they respond," he said, adding the UK is ready to offer all necessary help to India.

At least 80 people, including ATS chief Hemant Karkare, were killed when terrorists struck with impunity in Mumbai in coordinated multiple blasts and gunfire in a dozen areas including.

"Urgent action is underway to offer every possible protection to British citizens in the region," he said. Foreign Secretary David Miliband said the attacks were a reminder of the threat from violent extremists.

"I condemn these attacks unreservedly. Our thoughts are with the families and friends of those killed and injured," he said.

The UK and India will continue their joint efforts to counter the actions of terrorists."
