 A bomb exploded beneath a train in Russia's violence-plagued Dagestan region on Sunday, killing one person and injuring four others, police said. A powerful explosive device went off under the first car of the train as it headed from the regional capital, Makhachkala, to the town of Khasavyurt, derailing the car and leaving a crater on the track bed, said Akhmed Magomayev, chief of staff of the transport police in Dagestan. A woman who was among five people injured by the blast died on the way to a hospital, Magomayev was quoted as saying by The Associated Press. One of the injured was a guard on the train, he said. |
