Dozens Killed in Moscow Subway Explosions

| Dozens Killed in Moscow Subway Explosions By RICHARD BOUDREAUX, JACOB GRONHOLT-PEDERSEN And WILLIAM MAULDIN MOSCOW�Two blasts blamed on female suicide bombers ripped through packed Moscow trains during the morning rush hour Monday, killing at least 35 people, wounding dozens more and filling two stations with dense smoke as panicked commuters scrambled to escape. The chief of Russia's Federal Security Service said the preliminary investigation indicated the attacks were carried out by rebels from the North Caucasus region, where Islamic militancy has spread in recent years from a separatist movement in Chechnya into neighboring republics. No group claimed responsibility for the blasts, the deadliest attack on Moscow in six years. The first explosion, a few minutes before 8 a.m. (12 a.m. ET), tore through the second carriage of a subway train as it stood with doors open at Lubyanka station, beneath the headquarters of the Federal Security Service, the KGB's main successor agency. At least 23 people were killed, officials said. "An explosion thundered. People ran, covered in blood," Valery Svirin, a commuter, told Russia's Channel One television. "When I went upstairs I saw people lying on the ground. A man was bandaging a woman. She was unconscious. There was one dead body there." About 40 minutes later on the same subway line, another blast in the second carriage of a train waiting at the Park Kultury station, opposite Gorky Park, killed at least 12 more people. Sergei Shoigu, the minister for emergency situations, said another 102 people were injured in the blasts. President Dmitri Medvedev ordered security tightened and airports put on alert against what he called an attempt to destabilize the country. "We shall continue operations against terrorists without wavering and to the end," he said in televised remarks. |
the networks seems to be busy (I hope it's just that!)
Omg that is terrible
Was supposed to visit there in May Terrible.
I went to Moscow last year and actually passed through one of the stations hit this morning. Between this and the bombing on the Nevsky train between St Petes and Moscow (which I took when I was there) - it is weird to think how little I knew of the instability there when I visited.
may they rest in peace !!!
looks like chechens didnt learn their lesson.
Islamist militants are extremely difficult to deal with (if that confirmed). It will be interesting to see what approach Russia takes this time.
