A spokeswoman for Moscow's busiest airport says 35 people have been killed by an explosion in its international arrivals hall.
Domodedovo Airport spokeswoman Yelena Galanova made the statement Monday on Russia's NTV television.
Other officials put the death toll at 31 and said about 130 people were injured in the explosion Monday afternoon. President Dmitry Medvedev said it looked like a terror attack and the state RIA Novosti news agency said the blast may have been set off by a suicide bomber.

“I think you will note that I never said that Sarah said that”
Oh, contraire . . . I’m sorry . . . I never meant that YOU said that . . . sorry . . . I’ve just heard knuckle heads repeat that Tina Fey crap frequently. No, I know you didn’t say that.
I just wish more people knew exactly what she said. Sorry, Fellow Freeper . . . .
It’s from the video but that doesn’t help much.
And yet the Russians consistently side with the Palis and other terrorists. Shame on them!
You don’t even need to get near security. You can walk into any major airport in North America with numerous pieces of luggage and line up with hundreds of other people at the intitial check-in counter for your airline. No security check and usually no visible sign of any security officials. Just airline ticketing personnel and some porters. I’ve been in line at the Toronto airport when there would easily be 500 people lined up in an area 100 ft x 100 ft. It’s even worse lining up outside a major sporting event. Just think what a car bomb could do in front of the gates at the Meadowlands on game-day for the Giants.
I agree Vlad should unleash hell on the muslim zombies.
Nobody else is.
The last report I read said it happened outside the exit from the baggage claim, which was full of taxi drivers, porters and family members waiting for passengers to come out with their luggage. Anywhere you create a queue you’re going to have a vulnerable target and there’s no way to entirely prevent that scenario. In the early years of the second Iraq war, suicide bombers frequently attacked Iraqis who were lined up outside the Green Zone looking for work. If you did an initial screening outside the aiport doors, then the next attack will take place at that point. The terrorists will always seek convenient targets.
Putin said that Russia was islam's best friend in the world and that Russia will never be part of any "holy alliance" against islam.
Well stated!
I can see it coming: Big Sis will insist on body scans, gropings AND body cavity searches for everyone leaving home on the way to the airport for any reason.
Of course, if they would just adopt some Israeli screening techniques, they would be more effective.
They'd better get in line or prepare to cut in, cuz the Chinese have plans on that plot, too!
Neither of you have a clue - reading too much Lamestream media

When will brokeback pootypoot catch Doku Umarov? Will he hang him by the balls like he did to Saakashvili? Ha! Putin's empty street thug threats are all such ridiculous posing and posturing!
Maybe 0bama could attend a pep rally for them next week at the University of Moscow. ;-)
Agreed. It won’t be long before this sort of thing happens here.
Not one mention of Islam or Muslims in the vermin media .
Hell, I'm thinking more like Mega Tons...
Putin's authoritarian Kremlin dictatorship also supports the likes of radical communistic, anti-American thugs such as Hugo Chavez, Castro, Danial Ortega & the rest of Latin America's leftist rulers, right on America's southern flank.
Prayers for the victims.
10% of me thinks that now it’s time for Putin to come out and say “Russia needs a strong man like me for President.” Elections are in 2012 and Putin is itching to take back Medevdev’s place. There were a few apartment explosions a while back https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Russian_apartment_bombings#Related_events .....
