Overwhelming firepower dislodged them in June, but the militants blew the bridge connecting the two settlements as they withdrew -- using so much dynamite that there was barely a scrap left to scavenge.

Visiting the scene this morning, Donald Tusk said the damage done to the railway tracks on Sunday was deliberate and likely aimed at blowing up the train.

"The European countries do not compare with the US, but when you combine all of them, the blow to the global aid system is extraordinary. It's absolutely unprecedented," he told AFP.

Tusk said the goal of the sabotage was to blow up the train and that additional damage had been identified elsewhere on the route.

Indian investigators have named the man who they claim was driving the car that blew up last Monday near the landmark Red Fort monument in capital Delhi.
