A bomb at one of India's largest mosques killed at least 11 people today and wounded dozens more. The blast came as thousands of worshipers were in the historic mosque for Friday prayers in southern India's Hyderabad. The city has a large Muslim population and is one of India's technology hubs. The bombing at the Mecca Masjid mosque triggered intense local protests. Police sent in to quell the demonstrations fired live ammunition and killed at least 2 protesters. No group has claimed responsibility for the mosque bombing, but some Indian authorities blame other Muslims for the blast.
