MOSCOW, March 30 (Itar-Tass) - Moscow has declared Tuesday, March 30, a day of mourning for the dozens of victims who died in Monday morningââ¬â¢s bomb blasts at Moscowââ¬â¢s Lubyanka and Park Kultury metro stations.
State and city flags fly at half-mast, and all entertainment events have been cancelled at all cityââ¬â¢s public cultural establishments. Entertainment programs will be withdrawn from city television, and some channels will ban commercials. Some Moscow clubs and restaurants have also corrected their traditional night programs.
Already late on Monday dozens of Muscovites and guests of the Russian capital began bringing flowers and lighting candles at the two stations. Tables had been brought in for people to put flowers, icons and crucifixes. People stand in silence unable to find words. According to updated reports, the suicide bomb attacks killed 38 innocent people.
President Dmitry Medvedev also visited the Lubyanka metro station on Monday to put flowers at the site of the tragedy. The Russian president vowed that the masterminds of the blasts would be found and destroyed.
ââ¬ÅThese are animals. Irrespective of their motives, what they do is a crime by any law and any moral standards,ââ¬Â Medvedev said after visiting the Lubyanka metro station where one of the explosions occurred in the morning.
The escalator took the president downstairs to the platform where he laid flowers at the scene of the tragedy.
ââ¬ÅI have no doubt that we will find and destroy them all,ââ¬Â he said.
City medics say they still need donor blood. The youth movement Nashi (Ours) has organized a mobile station for blood donors.
Two female suicide bombers set off explosive devices during the morning rush-hour at two stations of the Sokolniki (Red) line. One explosion occurred at 07:57 Moscow time, and the other, at 08:37 Moscow time.
There is a link between all these happenings though I am not able to put my finger on it
