37 Killed in Moscow Domodedovo Airport Bombing, January 24, 2011
A suicide bomber detonated an improvised explosive device in the international arrivals baggage-claim area at Moscow Domodedovo Airport on January 24, 2011. The landside blast killed 37 people and injured 173, including 86 who were hospitalized. Investigators estimated that the bomb contained the equivalent of 2 to 5 kilograms of TNT and was packed with shrapnel and chopped wire. Russian officials identified the bomber as Magomed Yevloyev, 20, of Ali-Yurt, Ingushetia. Caucasus Emirate leader Doku Umarov later claimed responsibility in a video and said he had ordered the attack. On November 11, 2013, a Moscow region court convicted four men of helping shelter, finance and transport the bomber. Islam Yandiyev, Ilez Yandiyev and Bashir Khamkhoyev received life sentences. Akhmed Yevloyev, the bomber's brother, received a 10-year sentence because he was 15 at the time of the offense. President Dmitry Medvedev blamed failures in airport security and dismissed several officials. Also covered here: Moscow Domodedovo Airport Suicide Bombing Kills 37, January 24, 2011 |

thank you. The terrorists might have bitten off more then they can chew as the Soviets will retaliate and not care what the world thinks.
