Terrorist Attacks on Russia

Russia has increasingly become a target of terrorist attacks, allegedly to militants who

Continue to press for Chechen independence from the Russian Federation. Two housing blocks on the outskirts of Moscow were bombed in September of 1999, killing a total of 213 people. Another two apartment blocks were bombed on Buinaksk and Volgodonsk.

In August 2000, a bomb exploded in a crowded underpass near the Pushkinskaya subway Station in central Moscow, 13 people were killed. On October 23, 2002, Chechen rebels stormed a Moscow theater during a performance of the musical Nord-Ost, taking an estimated 900 people hostage. The standoff ended three days later, when Russian troops raided the building. 129 hostages died in the takeover, almost all as a result of a gas attack that was used by federal forces to subdue the rebels. In July 2003, two female suicide bombers detonated themselves at a Moscow rock concert killing 15 people. A violent explosion in a Moscow subway train (February 6, 2004) killed 39 people and injured over one hundred. And only God knows what else may happen in the future.
