On Monday evening (10 November 2025), a vehicle exploded near the Red Fort metro station in Delhi. At least eight people were killed and more than 20 injured, according to officials. Reuters

Investigators have identified the car as a white Hyundai i20, and the case has now been handed over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and anti-terror officials. Hindustan Times+2Al Jazeera+2

In a striking coincidence, a post on the social-media platform Reddit allegedly made by a student around 4 pm claimed:

“I’m returning home from school … near the Red Fort metro station there are so many police and army personnel … normally I don’t see this many … What is happening today?”

Roughly three hours later the explosion occurred. The post has been widely circulated and discussed on social-media platforms.
