Moscow car blast kills at least 8 A car exploded near a Moscow subway station Tuesday night, killing eight people and wounding 10, the Interfax news agency reported, citing emergency ministry officials.
The emergency ministry could not immediately be reached for comment. A duty officer at the Federal Security Service’s Moscow branch confirmed there was an explosion that caused injuries. News reports said the blast took place near the Rizhskaya station in northern Moscow, in an area between the entrance to the station and a supermarket-department store complex. The blast came a week after two Russian passenger planes crashed simultaneously following explosions on board, killing all 90 people aboard in what authorities say was a terrorist attack.
Criminal underworld feuds in Russia also frequently spill over into violence, including car bombings, that have killed and wounded bystanders. |
