Hello Bloggers!
Two female suicide bombers are responsible for the bombings in the Moscow subway system which has killed 39 commuters and injured many in yesterdays (29 March 2010) morning rush hour. Bombs went off on two separate subway stations (Lubyanka and Park Kultury) with 40 minutes apart. President Medvedev said "that those responsible for them will be found and destroyed". No group or terrorist organisation has claimed the responsibility for these attacks in Moscow, but Russian Authorities are blaming North Caucasus rebels as they were responsible for previous attacks between Moscow and St. Petersburg in November 2009.
The UN Security Council and the General Secretary, Ban Ki-moon have released a statement regarding the terrorist attacks, claiming that "terrorism in all forms and manifestations constitutes one of the most serious threat to international peace and security, and that any acts of terrorism are criminal and unjustifiable, regardless of their motivation". The UN has also expressed their 'determination to combat all forms of terrorism".
What are your thoughts on the Moscow bombings? What do you think of female suicide bombers? Is a new trend emerging?
