This suicide bombing in Russia is a nightmare.
"The 8 a.m. explosion ripped open the side of the second car of the train as it approached a station near Yessentuki, about 1,200 kilometres south of Moscow, throwing out passengers. Others were trapped under twisted, burning wreckage.
Authorities found undetonated grenades still strapped to the legs of a male suicide attacker, said Federal Security Service chief Nikolai Patrushev. Bomb disposal experts gingerly entered the wreckage to remove the explosives and later detonated them, Russian television reported.
Patrushev said two women jumped from the train just before the explosion; their fate was not known. The male suicide bomber has not been identified."
