An explosion rocked Moscow’s busiest airport today in an apparent “terrorist attack”, killing 35 and injuring dozens more, according to Russian officials.
The blast, which reportedly erupted in the Domodedovo airport, took place at 4:40 p.m. Moscow time. In addition to the 35 dead, another 130 were injured, airport spokesperson Yelena Galanova said on Russian television.
The attack was carried out by two suicide bombers, witnesses said according to Russia’s state news agency RIA. On Twitter, one purported eyewitness, Ilya Likhtenfeld, said the bomb “was not in the luggage,” but on a man standing in a crowd near a cafe. . .
