Explosion rips through Moscow airport
Authorities suspect suicide bombing
Dozens are dead and over 100 are wounded after an explosion at Moscow’s Domodedovo airport. While the exact cause of the explosion has not been established, investigators say they suspect a suicide bomber. The blast occurred in the baggage claim of the arrivals hall, where witnesses say thousands of people were gathered. Domodedovo airport is a popular airport among travelers, but it has been criticized for its security procedures. In 2004, two suicide bombers from the Dagestan region were able to board flight a flight and detonate their bombs in mid-air, killing everyone on board.
