Subway official: Explosive device set off on train
The St Petersburg subway press office said an explosive device was set off on a train in the Russian city.
Pray they don’t have another bomb set for the first responders.

Yes, and he probably blew up the ammo dump in Ukraine the other day, and he certainly assassinated Denis Voronenkov. This may be the rationale for putin striking out as some other country that had nothing to do with planting the bomb. This ally of the “civilian barrel bomber” (Assad) knows a lot about killing as a tool of statecraft.
Terrorists or the Russians bombing there own.
