'At least 10 dead' after blast on subway in Russia



An explosion in the St Petersburg metro system has killed at least 10 people and injured 20 more, local media reports.

There were blasts in two metro carriages at two stations, St Petersburg emergency services said.

A Reuters witness saw eight ambulances near the Sennaya Ploshchad metro station.

The blast involved a device filled with shrapnel, Interfax cited a source as saying.

The Life News website, a news outlet with close ties to Russia's security services, showed pictures of blown-out train doors and injured people on the station platform.
Russian news agencies quoted Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov saying that Russian President Vladimir Putin has been informed of the explosion.

Mr Putin was visiting the city and is expected to hold talks with the Belarusian president later in the day.

Three metro stations have been closed, local media outlet Fontanka reported.

My interpretation is that within minutes of an attack that has left ten innocent people dead and many injured you have already decided to declare it a conspiracy, speculation that is not particularly sensitive or appropriate at this stage imo

No, I replied after having seen the thread the first time. It is disgusting to assume a terrorist attack has been done to sweep another horrible event under the rug.

Depends, are you going to continue to post about conspiracy theories at the wrong time?

I didn't do that initially. Are you going to continue to bait me?

Your attitude is really inappropriate in this thread. But when did that stop you?

And yet you still continue to bait me in it?

You're the one baiting with the constant playing with words, not saying what you mean then jumping on those who speculate. You can't have it both ways.

I would see it as the reverse of that actually
