On this day, 2 August 1980, a timebomb exploded in an air-conditioned waiting-room in Bologna train station, killing 85 people and injuring over 200. Carried out by neo-fascists, it is one of the worst terrorist attacks in European history, and was undertaken during the Strategy of Tension: a state security operation in which attacks by the far right or security services were carried out and blamed on anarchists and communists.
