31 Dead in Moscow Airport Homicide Bombing

Washington Times - MOSCOW (AP) — A suicide bomber set off an explosion that ripped through Moscow's busiest airport on Monday, coating its international arrivals terminal in blood. The attack killed at least 31 people and wounded nearly 170, Russian officials said. The terminal at Domodedovo Airport was engulfed by smoke and splattered with body parts after the midafternoon explosion that sprayed shrapnel, screws and ball bearings. Amateur video posted on YouTube showed a pile of bodies on the floor and other bodies scattered around. Luggage lay strewn across the ground, and several small fires burned. A dazed man in a suit pushed a baggage cart through the carnage. A man in blood-soaked clothes said he was just a few yards away from the explosion and thought he had been severely injured. "The guy standing next to me was torn to pieces," said Artyom Zhilenkov, a 35-year-old driver. Doctors told Mr. Zhilenkov that he had not sustained any injuries, but he was splattered by other victims' flesh and blood. Read full story here:
