Australia has marked the 20th anniversary of the horrific 7/7 bombings in London, in which one Australian was killed and eight others injured.
On July 7, 2005, four suicide bombers targeted the UK capital’s transport network.
Three of the bombers detonated at three stations in the London Underground, while the fourth detonated on a bus.
They killed 52 and left more than 770 injured.
Australian man Sam Ly was on the bus that was attacked.
He was pulled from the wreckage but his injuries were too severe and he died a week later.
Australian officials laid flowers at the 7 July Memorial Gardens to mark the tragic anniversary.
