Olympic Terror Threat in Russia
Purported suicide bombers issue threats against Olympics in new video.

Mounting concern over security at the Olympics in Sochi now just a little more than 2 weeks away, tonight that new video, an oned and ominous threat from a team that had struck already. At least one American senator tonight saying it’s too dangerous to go to Sochi. ABC’s chief investigator correspondent Brian Ross on the new terror threat tonight.
Amid growing concerns about security, the terror group behind the last two suicide attacks at Russia in the city of Volgograd today posted this video online, reported to show the two men responsible shown allegedly building their bombs and then heading to their targets, and then said their group had more attacks planned, a surprise package as they call it, and one especially, they said, for tourists who will come to the Olympic games. In a separate online statement, the terror group said the Volgograd attacks are only the beginning and said future threats could go as far as to include chemical attacks.
For the long and the short of it is that I think Vladimir Putin and Russian government will be very lucky if they are able to get through the Olympics without any incident.
Today one US senator said it was too dangerous to attend the Olympics in Sochi.
I would not go and I don’t think I would send my family.
But Russian authorities insist they have security issues in hand. It released their own video today, showing a full scale assault on a suspected military stronghold in Degestan, seven people were killed according to Russian officials who say their iron-fisted take no prisoners approach will make the Olympics safe.
Wow, we are just a couple of weeks away now, Brian with us, and you say the real first test to this major security they say they have comes what, tomorrow?
That’s right, tomorrow the Olympics torch relay goes through the city of Volgograd, but these two suicide attacks have already taken place, security will be at a complete lockdown situation in that city, a real test to the ability to withstand terror threats.
Alright, Brain Ross bringing himself on a Sunday night. Thank you.
