Bomb carried by woman kills three, injures 21 near Moscow restaurant, authorities say
Authorities say the bomb may have been triggered remotely as investigators work to identify the woman and determine whether the blast was deliberate.
- Three people were killed and at least 21 others injured in an explosion outside the Balzi Rossi Italian restaurant on Kudrinskaya Square in central Moscow.
- An unidentified woman attempted to enter the venue with an improvised explosive device but was intercepted by a security guard at the entrance.
- The resulting blast killed the woman, the security guard, and a restaurant patron, while emergency personnel treated dozens of bystanders for varying injuries.
- The upscale establishment was closed to the public for a private event, with monitoring reports indicating a high-ranking Russian military official may have been in attendance.
- Russian investigators are exploring whether the device was detonated remotely and if the carrier was unaware of the explosives, as no group has immediately claimed responsibility.
