23 31 35 Killed in Moscow Airport Bombing

Posted on January 24, 2011 by Lawrence Person

“The Russian state RIA Novosti news agency says an explosion at Moscow’s busiest airport has killed 23 people and wounded 130.”

Chechnyan separatists? Jihadists? (Remember that Jihaist suicide bombers have struck in Russia before.) Who knows? News is still coming in.

Another story.

Added: Death toll updated to 31

Edited to add 2: Seeing reports of 35 deaths now. Also seeing reports that it was a suicide bomber.
