The Baltic Exchange bombing was an attack by the Provisional IRA on the City of London, Britain's financial centre, on 10 April 1992, the day after the General Election which re-elected John Major from the Conservative Party as Prime Minister. The one-ton bomb – concealed in a large white truck and consisting of a fertilizer device wrapped with a detonation cord made from 100 lb (45 kg) of semtex – was the biggest bomb detonated on mainland Britain since World War II. The bombing killed three people, injured 91 others, and severely damaged the Baltic Exchange and its surroundings.

  • Der Bombenanschlag auf die Baltic Exchange in London war ein Angriff der paramilitärischen Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) auf die Warenbörse Baltic Exchange in der City of London, dem Finanzzentrum Großbritanniens, am 10. April 1992. Er erfolgte einen Tag nach den Britische Unterhauswahlen, bei der John Major von der Conservative Party als Premierminister wiedergewählt wurde. Die Ein-Tonnen-Bombe – versteckt in einem großen weißen Lastwagen und bestehend aus einem Düngegerät, das mit einer Sprengschnur aus 100 lb (45 kg) Semtex umwickelt war – war die größte Bombe, die seit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg auf dem britischen Festland gezündet wurde. Der Bombenanschlag tötete drei Menschen, verletzte 91 weitere und beschädigte das Gebäude der Baltic Exchange und seine Umgebung schwer. (de)
