Three car bombs exploded
- On 31 July 1972, three car bombs exploded on Main Street in Claudy, County Londonderry, killing nine people. No paramilitary group has ever claimed responsibility for the attack and no-one has been convicted of carrying it out, though there is little doubt the IRA was behind it.
