On this 13th anniversary of the Mumbai terror attacks, we will always remember everyone who lost their lives and mourn with their families. A grateful nation salutes the security personnel who made the supreme sacrifice.
Tributes poured in on November 26 as the world remembered the victims who had lost their lives in the Mumbai terror attacks. The gruesome attacks started on November 26, 2008, and lasted for four days, killing hundreds of people.
Mumbai 26/11 Attacks— All you need to know
On November 26, 2008, 10 Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists came to Mumbai via sea route from Pakistan to carry out a series of coordinated shooting and bombing attacks across the city. The terrorists targeted major landmarks of Mumbai with the first attack taking place at the crowded Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST) railway station.
Ajmal Amir Kasab and Ismail Khan attacked this station, killing as many as 58 people and injuring over 100. Kasab and Khan later entered to attack Cama Hospital, but the same was obstructed with the alertness of the hospital staff. They, however, succeeded in killing six police officials, including Mumbai’s Anti-Terrorism Squad Hemant Karkare after leaving the hospital.
The second attack took place at Nariman House business and residential complex where a Rabbi, his wife, and six others, including five Israeli citizens, were killed by the terrorists who first held them as a hostage. The two-year-old child of the Rabbi couple, Moshe, survived in the attack.
The third attack was at the Leopold Cafe followed by the Taj Mahal Hotel and Tower. Four terrorists attacked the popular cafe before they entered the famous Taj hotel where they killed as many as 31 people after laying a three-day siege at the hotel.
The other side of the attack was Oberoi-Trident hotel where two terrorists entered at almost the same time, as the other four had entered Taj. Here the siege officially ended on the evening of November 28 with as many as 30 being killed in the ghastly attack.
Finally, the attack and seizure ended on November 29, 2008, the morning after the National Security Guards (NSG) secured the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel. The NSG commandos gunned down the last terrorists who had been hiding in south Mumbai’s Taj Mahal Palace hotel, killing over 160 people and leaving hundreds injured.
After the attack, it was established that the 10 terrorists had sailed to Mumbai from Pakistan’s port city, Karachi. Their expedition involved hijacking a fishing dinghy and killing four of the five men crew, leaving one occupant to ferry them to Mumbai coast.
In these horrific attacks, nine terrorists were killed and the lone survivor, Ajmal Amir Kasab, was caught and was sentenced to death in 2012.

Ratan Tata : On Mumbai Attack 26/11
Tata chairman Ratan Tata said in an interview with CNN’s Fareed Zakaria that they had received advance warning of the attacks and that some countermeasures had been taken. These may have been relaxed before the attack, but in any case were easily sidestepped by the operatives.
The less-damaged sections of the Taj Mahal Palace and Tower hotel reopened on 21 December 2008. It took several months to rebuild the popular heritage section of the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel.
