Birmingham pub bombings

The Birmingham pub bombings occurred on 21 November 1974 in Birmingham, England. Bombs exploded in two central Birmingham pubs – the "Mulberry Bush" and the "Tavern in the Town" – killing 21 people and injuring 182. Although telephoned warnings were sent, the pubs were not evacuated in time. Members of the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) are believed to have been responsible, although the IRA denied responsibility.^[2]
