Eight years have passed since the tragedy in a small southern town built at the confluence of two great rivers, the Volga and the Don. On September 16th not a single central or regional television or radio station uttered a word about the incident that happened eight years ago, the tragedy in Volgodonsk. On that day an explosion of two tons of TNT and RDX suddenly divided so many lives of into BEFORE the attack, and AFTER. BEFORE was a quiet life, with hopes and plans for the future, and the smiles of the children. AFTER is tears, the pain of loss, the indifferent eyes of hospital officials, and the loss of health and work. Today, eight years after, the bureaucrats tell us: “What is it that you are all remembering? It’s time to forget about it!” Forget what? Forget the pain of the mothers, the pain of the orphaned children, the question in their eyes that says: “Why us?” SUCH A THING IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FORGET! Comments (1) | Views: 4923 | E-mail |

Three years after the tragedy there is finally a monument on the site where wreckage of the Tu-154 fell to earth By Olga Vakhonicheva, Radio Svoboda Just before the third anniversary of the terror acts, in which two passenger planes simultaneously exploded in the skies over Russia, a monument has been set up on the site of the destruction of one aircraft. For three years neither the authorities, nor Sibir airlines (who owned the Tu-154 that was flying the Moscow-Sochi route), made any attempts to do this. The humble memorial was set up using the resources of a private fund for assisting terrorism victims. The memorial was placed near the village of Gluboky Kamensk in the Shakhtinsky region of the Rostov district, on the site where wreckage of the Tu-154 was found. It consists of two large stones, between which is a plaque with the names of the airline’s 46 dead passengers and crew. Comments (1) | Views: 4896 | E-mail |

By Marina Daineko July 13th, 2007 In MZ http://www.newswe.com/Exclusive/ex1.php#pa118 The face of a little girl who will never grow up. But who will answer for this and many other broken lives? Bright is her memory. Hers, and the memory of all who died at Dubrovka. The face of a little girl, for whose death old men received medals. "Happiness is a philosophical concept, and every family has its own happiness. Happiness in our family was Sashenka.” So wrote her aunt, Roza Ishchenko. Look at the Memorial Book, reader. Look at the bright face of this little girl who will forever remain 13. The face of a little girl, who, perhaps, while still alive, was tossed onto the steel floor of a medical service UAZ van by her so-called rescuers, and then covered by the bodies of 12 other hostages. She was born in Karaganda, Kazakhstan, in 1989. The web site created and maintained by her mother, Svetlana Gubareva, has a memorial book with a page dedicated to every hostage of the Dubrovka theatrical center. Sasha’s address is: http://nord-ost.org/kniga-pamyati/letyago-aleksandra.html. Comments (29) | Views: 122898 | E-mail |

By Olga Allenova In Kommersant Victims of the terror act accuse Nikolai Patrushev of negligence The ‘Nord-Ost’ public organization yesterday petitioned the Prosecutor General’s office with a demand that criminal charges be brought against members of the operational headquarters responsible for the rescue of hostages from the Dubrovka theatrical center. They are accused of negligence and hiding information on the dangerous gas used by the special services. According to the ‘Nord-Ost’ terror act victims, they were only now appealing to the Prosecutor General because they had spent the last five years “collecting proofs, questioning witnesses, and studying materials from the criminal case while under constant resistance from the prosecutor’s office”.

By Valery Kopotin In KM.RU On Wednesday, in the central Journalism Union building, members of the ‘Nord-Ost’ organization held a press conference. Present were co-chairmen Sergey and Tatiana Karpova as well as the organization’s activist Dmitry Milovidov. The ‘Nord-Ost’ people spoke about their intentions to bring to justice high-ranking officials who, in their opinion, are guilty of the deaths of people as a result of the terror act in the theatrical center on Dubrovka in 2002. The press conference’s participants did not report anything new, as the arguments they made have been broadcast several times before. This time, however, the organization’s members announced that they were petitioning the Prosecutor General’s office, “with the goal of bringing the guilty to justice”. By the way, on that same day Tatiana Karpova answered questions in an online news conference for the New York Times publication. Comments (2) | Views: 6526 | E-mail |
