Delhi/IBNS, Nov. 12 -- A chilling CCTV clip from Monday evening has captured the exact moment when a car exploded near Delhi's iconic Red Fort, leaving nine people dead and over twenty injured.

The 15-second footage, released on Wednesday, shows slow-moving traffic near the Red Fort Metro Station before a sudden fireball engulfs the area-believed to have originated from a Hyundai i20 that investigators say was packed with explosives.

The blast, which occurred around 6:51 pm on Monday, destroyed multiple vehicles and sent shockwaves across the capital.

The footage has now become a crucial piece of evidence for the National Investigation Agency (NIA), which has officially taken over the case.
