Thousands of tourists visit the 17th Century Red Fort every day, which lies just a few metres from a busy trading hub.

Delhi's police commissioner says it happened at 18:52 local time (13:22 GMT), when a slow-moving vehicle stopped at a red light before it exploded.

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi shares his condolences "to those who have lost their loved ones" and says he is reviewing the situation. Police say they have not yet found what caused the blast.
