It was previously reported that today's coordinated terrorist attacks in Mumbai killed at least 10. It now seems to be much worse.
Here's the latest headline from Reuters:
At least 80 killed, 250 injured in Mumbai attacks, police say; Mumbai attackers holding Western hostages at Taj Hotel: reports
Update: Witness accounts indicate that the attacks were directed at foreigners in India's financial capital:
"They wanted anyone with British or American passports," a witness at the Taj Hotel, who said he was from London and was in India on business, told the NDTV news channel. He had smoke stains all over his face. "They wanted foreigners."
More eyewitness accounts from the BBC.
