In the suicide bombing at the Moscow Airport at least 34 people were killed and 168 injured in the attack the blast form the bombing was intense investigators even saw a body near the airport.
The Russian president, Dmitri A. Medvedev said that the blast at the airport was an act of terrorism. The explosion international arrivals terminal from outside this is a witness is saying the bomb set off at 4:32 p.m. local time.
Inflaming relations between ethnic Russians and migrants the article tells me Im pretty sure that is why the Moscow Airport was bombed. There were no supect indicated on who was behind the blast but terrorism attacks have nearly always been traced before to me an inside job tooooooooooooo slick. LOL.
There be recent attacke before this one, very similar but there were two women that had explosive belts and detonated themselves and who was ever around on the city subway killing more than 40 people.

Dmitri A. Medvedev talked to the prosecutor general during a special meeting to maybe short a plan to stop terriorist from bombing their city.

The article I read was the ski resort attacks and its about some people had attacked a car that carried 5 tourists at North Caucasian. On Friday, a armed men came up to the vehicle shot all 5 people. Three was killed and two was wounded. An hour later, a cable-car was blown up in the ski resort, though no casualties were reported. Three bombs were also defused by police in a car parked at a nearby hotel. The person who did it didn't want the Olympics to come to Russia thats all bad, but really dumb.

I read about the ski attacks

The ski attacks in russia was very rare because it killed 3 and injured 2. It was said that the attacks that has happen was not used towards citizens uasually to the resort.
The article said that it was so much blood in the minibus it leaked out of it. Also this could be a warning for the 2014 olympics. So hopefully nothing happens and everthing be safe.

The video I watched had president Barack Obama talking. He and many others were talking about the new Start Treaty. This is a nuclear arms conrtol agreement between Russia and the U.S. The U.S and Russia have over 90 percent of the worlds nuclear weapons. The new treaty would keep both the places responsible.

Tourists were ethier killed or injured due to the attack that happend. it tells you that armed men came then started to attack and tried to use bombs but also cablemcars were blown up. The police defused the bombs, and are still investigating the accident that happend.

Suicide Bombing at Moscow Airport killed 34 people and wounded 168. The bomber apparently entered the international arrivals terminal from outside. and the explosion went off at 4:32 p.m. Most of the bomb attacks were traced back to north Caucasus.The most recent attack before this one came in March, when two women from Dagestan strapped on explosive belts and detonated themselves on the city’s subway, killing more than 40 people. I think bombing is normal for them but now they are getting more info after bombing. So they might just stop it next time!

The ten people that died in Russia had a funny way of doing it because two died in a house, and some more died while they was in a shoot out at the border line of the two countries between the police and militants people. Then two more people died by blowing themselves up right in front of the police station. I mean did they plan that stuff or something to be truthful.

I read about the ski resort kill and that the attacks in the North Caucasian region of Kabardino-Balkaria killed at least five people, including a government official and three tourists.

I Read about the Suicide Bombing at Moscow Airport and I actually looked at photo's that where taken that day it occurred. This Article was about a Suicide bombing that occurred at a Airport in Russia and they said about 34 people were actually killed and 168 were injured badly. As I read this Article and looked at the pictures I could see the emotion on a couple of the peoples faces and it was sad. This Bombing happen Monday Afternoon and the bombing set off an enormous explosion. Bystanders scrambled to get people who were wounded out on baggage carts. I am sad for those who may have lost their life during this bombing but I am happy that a lot of people survived.

10 Die in North Caucasus Clashes :

At least 10 people died on Tuesday in clashes between the police and militants in the Russian North Caucasus. It was said by the police in Chechnya that they surrounded a house where two militants were hiding, and that one of the fighters set off an explosion that killed both of them. 3 other police officers and 5 militants died also during a shootout. The news came a day after a suicide bombing right in front of a police station killing three and injuring 26. The victims that set off the suicide bombing had been sought in connection with a botched suicide bombing planned for New Year's Eve in central Moscow.

Last weekend about 5 people and some tourists died at a ski resort in Russia. which led Russians to believe that a host of the olympics in Russia may be targeted next. Thats if the game still goes on. who may be causeing these killings is some militants. so now Russia is gathering strong security and preparing for the next attack that may happen again.
