Blast rocks Moscow subway 莫斯科一地铁站发生爆炸

A bomb has ripped through an underpass packed with hundreds of commuters and shoppers in central Moscow, killing eight people and injuring about 50.

The bomb went off during rush hour in one of the city's busiest subways, in Pushkin Square. A second bomb was found and defused near the scene of the blast.

Moscow's mayor, Yuri Luzhkov, said it was a terrorist attack carried out by Chechen rebels.

"The testimony from several witnesses who were able to answer questions in hospital shows ... it was 100% Chechnya," he said in an interview on NTV private television.

一枚炸弹在莫斯科市中心的一个有成百上千乘客和顾客汇集的地铁站地下通道爆炸，导致８人死亡，约50人受伤。

这枚炸弹爆炸时正值交通高峰期，而且发生在位于普希金广场的莫斯科最繁忙的一个地铁站。爆炸点附近发现的第二枚炸弹已被拆除。

莫斯科市长卢日科夫说，这是车臣叛军组织的恐怖主义活动。

它在接受当地电视台NTV采访时说，“数名躺在医院里能回答问题的目击者证实...这百分之百是车臣人干的。”
