Bomb kills Russian soldier in Chechnya
2013-08-15
A Russian Interior Ministry soldier was killed and two more were injured by twin bomb explosions during a search for Islamist terrorists militants in Chechnya. The blasts took place on Monday afternoon near the western village of Achkhoi-Martan, where the Chechen Interior MinistryÂ’s Akhmad Kadyrov unit was on a reconnaissance mission in a forest area.

The explosions, 25 minutes apart, killed a sniper and caused two more soldiers to suffer “concussion and shrapnel wounds." One of them is in a serious condition.

The second bomb was detonated as reinforcements arrived in the area following the first blast, according to the police.
