Reuters) - At least 31 people were killed and more than 100 injured on Monday in a suicide bombing at Russia's biggest airport, Russian news agencies reported.

Russia's ruble-dominated stock market MICEX fell by nearly two percent following the blast, which ripped through the baggage claim area at Moscow's Domodedovo airport at 1332 GMT.

Smoke wafted out of the baggage claim area and people were seen running out of the emergency exits at the airport, local media reported.

Initial casualty figures were contradictory with ITAR-TASS saying about 20 people had been killed. A spokeswoman for prosecutors put the number of casualties at about 20.

Moscow suffered its worst attack in six years in March 2010 when two female suicide bombers from Russia's volatile Dagestan region set off explosives in the metro, killing 40 people.

The Kremlin is struggling to contain an Islamist insurgency in the mainly Muslim North Caucasus, and rebels have repeatedly vowed they will take their battle to the Russian heartland.

Death toll keeps rising. This is really ugly.
 
This latest suspected terrorist attack again reaffirms the long and difficult fight that Russia confronts with those who are willing and sometimes able to target innocent persons with deliberate violence. It also suggests that Russia cannot afford to let up in its fight against the terrorists who continue to prey on innocent people.
 
The religion of peace may have have had something to do with this. Certainly fit's their MO.

Just wait, Chappy or Haymarket will be along to suggest it was actually the T Party, Sarah Palin living so close and all.;)

Well, they would have a point. If it weren't for white, christain, racist, homophobe conservatives stuff like this wouldn't happen.
 
Moscow Explosion at airport kills 24

MOSCOW (Reuters) – A suicide bomber killed at least 31 people at Russia's biggest airport, Moscow-Domodedovo, on Monday in an attack that bore the hallmarks of militants fighting for an Islamist state in the north Caucasus region.

President Dmitry Medvedev vowed to track down and punish those behind the bombing, which also injured about 130 people during the busy late afternoon.

I am surprised no one has posted anything yet? So many killed and just watch the video. Do you believe what the taxi driver did was wrong? Apparently so many taxi drivers went into the scene after it happened. And they videotaped it with their cellphones and then uploaded the videos to youtube. What do you think?
 
Re: Moscow Explosion at airport kills 24

Russia has been dealing with much terror attacks for awhile now. I see nothing wrong with the cab drivers taking video, and the situation is very tragic.

People take videos of traumatic events all the time. I don't have a problem with it.

Didn't take long for the conservative persecution complex to show up, and oh look, nobody had mentioned them because the situation has nothing to do with them. I'm shocked, I tell you.

Since when does that matter? ;)
 
Re: Moscow Explosion at airport kills 24

This is repayment for Russia's destruction of the Chechen capital of Grozny.

Russia could stop this type of terrorism easily. Get out of the Caucasus.

Is that the new operative word, that is to replace, "racist/ homophobe/bigot/sexist"?
 
Re: Moscow Explosion at airport kills 24

No it was an attempt, as I read it, to mock your friends. I'll admit it was in somewhat bad taste considering the horror that this thread denotes, but it wasn't a "conservative persecution complex" it was a "point and giggle at" moment.
