Blast rocks Moscow subway 莫斯科一地鐵站發生爆炸

A bomb has ripped through an underpass packed with hundreds of commuters and shoppers in central Moscow, killing eight people and injuring about 50.

The bomb went off during rush hour in one of the city's busiest subways, in Pushkin Square. A second bomb was found and defused near the scene of the blast.

Moscow's mayor, Yuri Luzhkov, said it was a terrorist attack carried out by Chechen rebels.

"The testimony from several witnesses who were able to answer questions in hospital shows ... it was 100% Chechnya," he said in an interview on NTV private television.

一枚炸彈在莫斯科市中心的一個有成百上千乘客和顧客匯集的地鐵站地下通道爆炸，導致８人死亡，約50人受傷。

這枚炸彈爆炸時正值交通高峰期，而且發生在位于普希金廣場的莫斯科最繁忙的一個地鐵站。爆炸點附近發現的第二枚炸彈已被拆除。

莫斯科市長盧日科夫說，這是車臣叛軍組織的恐怖主義活動。

它在接受當地電視臺NTV采訪時說，“數名躺在醫院里能回答問題的目擊者證實...這百分之百是車臣人干的。”
