India says a car explosion near Delhi’s Red Fort that killed at least 12 people this week was a “terrorist incident.”

“The country has witnessed a heinous terror incident, perpetrated by anti-national forces,” says a cabinet statement, formally designating the nature of Monday’s blast for the first time.
