(Reuters) – At least 10 people were killed when a bomb blast ripped through a trolleybus on Monday in the second deadly attack in the Russian city of Volgograd in two days, law enforcement authorities said.

The explosion came a day after a suicide bomber killed at least 17 people in the main railway station of the southern city 40 days before Russia is to hold the Winter Olympics in the Black Sea resort of Sochi.

State TV footage showed the twisted, gutted remains of the blue-and-white trolleybus, its roof blown off and debris strewn around the street. Federal investigators said the blast was believed to have been a “terrorist act”.

  1. I am close to vomiting: just now – discussing this on one of our most conservative radio stations who actually have the courage to mention the “I” word – and do so strongly – a so-called expert on Olympic Games Security or whatever, said that it had “nothing to do with *I*slam or the Koran, it was just “criminals” and a few “over-excited imams, misrepresenting the koran” – “exactly what we get with overheated Christians”.

    Remember the reporting of the “Children of Beslan” – at the time I didn’t know what was behind the generic sounding description of “Chechnians”. Now they call them “black widows” – sounds nearly like a figure from a certain Mozart opera….

    My hope lays with Putin!

  2. Volgograd: blast in trolleybus. LIVE UPDATES

    According to information obtained by the Voice of Russia, suspected Volgograd trolley-bus bomber Pavel Pechyonkin, aged 32, is a former paramedic. In 2012, he joined the bandit underground, having left a note for his mother on his lap top computer. Pechyonkin has since communicated with his parents two or three times via the Internet.

  3. Rita during WWII the Russians perfected the tactic of training women to be snipers, this scared the Germans more then men since women are suppose to be the nurturers and not the destroyers. The Moslems are taking the Russians lessons and applying them against Russia.

    As far as Putin goes this is a Saudi sponsored attack against people who are supporting Iran in the struggle of who will control the new Caliphate.

  4. Yucki things are going to get a lot worse in that area, some people in Congress are trying to cover Israel by passing a bill that says that if Israel attacks Iran the US is automatically at war with Iran. They are hoping this will cause Iran to back off of acquiring nuclear weapons. Since the Iranian leaders want Armageddon I don’t see anything besides a massive conventional bombing campaign of 1 to 2 months or a large nuclear strike stopping them.
