Interestingly R5 are describing this as a "code amber on three lines".

That's what 'code amber' means. All trains draw forward to platforms,
passengers are evacuated to ground level and services suspended.

One injured at Warren Street - said to be person who was carrying
rucksack whick exploded(!) - also confirmed reports of armed police
entering University College Hospital on Radio London (I expect related
to former point).

University College Hospital is evacuated and sealed of by armed police,
hopefully the injured person is one of the bombers. Bombs reported to
be dummy nail bombs. Affected stations are Warren St. (Victoria), Oval
(Northern) and Shephards Bush (Hammersmith & City), plus the No.26 bus
