3rd March 1943 BBCnews

A survivor recalled, "I was trapped by hundreds of people wedged up to the tube. I went to move but couldn't because they were falling around me."

It was terrible, people just piled up and eventually, the bodies were blocking the entrance. People were startled after hearing a rocket being launched in few hundred yards away. We were panic, screaming and crying. When we came up, there were children missing and whole family was gone.
