The London Docklands bombing (also known as the South Quay bombing or erroneously referred to as the Canary Wharf bombing) occurred on 9 February 1996, when the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) detonated a powerful truck bomb in South Quay (which is outside Canary Wharf). The blast killed two people and devastated a wide area, causing an estimated £150 million worth of damage. The IRA had sent warnings 90 minutes beforehand, but the area was not fully evacuated. As well as the two people who were killed, more than 100 were injured, some permanently.

  • The London Docklands bombing (also known as the South Quay bombing or erroneously referred to as the Canary Wharf bombing) occurred on 9 February 1996, when the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) detonated a powerful truck bomb in South Quay (which is outside Canary Wharf). The blast killed two people and devastated a wide area, causing an estimated £150 million worth of damage. The IRA had sent warnings 90 minutes beforehand, but the area was not fully evacuated. As well as the two people who were killed, more than 100 were injured, some permanently. The attack marked an end to the IRA's seventeen-month ceasefire, and came just over an hour after its declaration to Irish broadcaster RTÉ. The IRA agreed to the ceasefire in August 1994 on the understanding that Sinn Féin would be allowed to take part in peace negotiations, but resumed its campaign with the Docklands bombing when the British government demanded a full IRA disarmament as a precondition for talks. After the bombing, the British government dropped its demand. A few months later, the IRA detonated another, more powerful truck bomb in Manchester. IRA member James McArdle was convicted of the bombing in 1998. He had been a member of an IRA sniper team in South Armagh. He was released two years later, under the terms of the Good Friday Agreement. (en)
  • El atentado de Docklands (también conocido como el atentado de Canary Wharf y el atentado de South Quay) fue uno de los ataques más importantes llevados a cabo por el Ejército Republicano Irlandés Provisional (el IRA) durante los años 1990. Ocurrida el 9 de febrero de 1996, la ofensiva provocó grandes daños al sector financiero de Docklands, en East London, y puso fin al alto al fuego de los dos años anteriores. (es)
  • Ar 9 Feabhra 1996. phléasc buama leath-thonna i gceantar Docklands (South Quay, Canary Wharf) i Londain, buama a rinne damáiste 85 milliún punt do lárionad airgeadais na cathrach agus a mharaigh beirt daoine. Ní raibh dhá bhliain imithe ó shíniú an tsos cogaidh, nuair a chuir an tIRA ar ceal é ar 9 Feabhra 1996. Níos deireanaí ar an lá céanna, phléasc an buama. Bhí Sinn Féin den tuairim go raibh teipthe ar an sos cogaidh, toisc nach raibh Rialtas na Ríochta Aontaithe na comhchainteanna síochána a oscailt do na Poblachtánaigh sula ndíchoimisiúnódh an tIRA a chuid arm.
