Another Suicide Bombing in Russia

Ten killed in new attack in Russian city of Volgograd

 

Moscow (AFP) - At least 10 people were killed on Monday in a bombing that
destroyed a packed trolleybus in the southern Russian city of Volgograd, a day
after 17 people died in a suicide strike on the city's main train station.

 

The new attack will further heighten fears about security at the Winter Olympic Games which are due to open on February 7 in Russia's Black Sea resort of Sochi, which lies 690 kilometres (425 miles) southwest of Volgograd.

 

The city, known as Stalingrad in the Soviet era, is of huge importance to Russians as the scene of one of the key battles of World War II that led to the defeat of invading Nazi forces.
