MOSCOW -- Two explosions shook crowded subway stations in central Moscow during the morning rush hour Monday, killing at least 35 people and injuring many others, according to local officials, who said early reports pointed to coordinated strikes by suicide bombers.
Investigators are treating the metro explosions as the deadliest and most sophisticated terrorist attacks in the Russian capital in several years. Local media cited unnamed federal security sources saying the two suspected bombers were women.
Officials said the first explosion occurred shortly before 8 a.m. at the Lubyanka subway station, killing 22 people. The second blast occurred about 45 minutes later at the Park Kultury station, located on the same line four stops away, killing at least 12 people, officials said.
Moscow's subway system, one of the most extensive and busiest in the world, with more than 7 million passengers daily, was targeted by militants linked to the separatist insurgency in Chechnya earlier in the decade, including in multiple suicide attacks in 2004 that killed dozens of people.
The city has enjoyed a respite from such violence in recent years, but Muslim radicals have stepped up their attacks in the North Caucasus region recently, including in Chechnya and neighboring Ingushetia and Dagestan. And in November, authorities blamed the insurgents for the bombing of a luxury train traveling between Moscow and St. Petersburg, which caused a derailment that killed at least 26 people.
