Questions were sent in while we were on the air at Echo of Moscow, most of which we were unable to answer. As I promised, I am answering these on the site. If anyone still has questions, please ask, and I will try to answer them.

How goes the investigation into the case of the deaths at Dubrovka? Have they brought to task the special services employees who conducted the operation?

Malcolm Dando: And I suppose the dog that's not barked so far is the use of a fentanyl type agent by Russian special forces to break the Moscow hostage siege. That indicated that at least one country must have had quite large stockpiles, at least some training and a willingness to use a form of incapacitant.

On radio station Echo of Moscow’s broadcast show ‘Turn’, May 11th, 2007

Hosts: Irina Merkulova and Alexander Plyushchev

Guests: Svetlana Gubareva and Dmitry Milovidov

ALEXANDER PLYUSHCHEV: We have as guests Svetlana Gubareva, author and former hostage at ‘Nord-Ost’, who is the author of the book ‘Memorial’, and Dmitry Milovidov, a member of the coordinating committee of the ‘Nord-Ost’ organization. Good day.

IRINA MERKULOVA: To begin with, let’s talk about the book. It describes those who died at Dubrovka. If I understand this correctly, the book is not yet in a printed form, but it is still being prepared.

Komsomolskaya Pravda

By Kirill Almakayev and Elena Sheremetova.

A car full of explosives was found in the capital. Other vehicles sought.

A maroon-colored Moskvich 7-series with Chechen plates, abandoned in front of Profsoyuz Street 26/44, was found on Tuesday in the early evening. Bomb squad officers, who were immediately called to the scene, examined the auto and determined that the small car was literally filled with explosives.
