New York blast has no links to foreign ‘terrorism’, Reported.

New York’s Governor Andrew Cuomo says the bombing that wounded 29 people does not have any links to “international terrorism”.
The explosion tore through Chelsea, a residential district of Manhattan that is popular for its nightlife, late on Saturday. Police later discovered a second bomb four blocks away, which was safely defused and taken away for analysis.

“A bomb exploding in New York is obviously an act of terrorism, but it’s not linked to international terrorism. In other words, we find no ISIS connection, et cetera,” said Cuomo in reference to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, also known as ISIL.
Earlier, New York’s Mayor Bill de Blasio told a news conference: “There is no specific and credible threat against New York City at this point in time from any terror organisation.”
De Blasio said that, though injuries were significant, none of those hurt was likely to die.
