At least 10 people have been killed in explosions at underground stations in St Petersburg, Russian media report.
The Tass and Interfax agencies reported the blasts hit the Sennaya Ploschad and nearby Tekhnologichesky Institut stations in the centre of the city.
Images posted on social media showed a carriage in Sennaya station with its doors blown out with casualties nearby.
President Vladimir Putin, who is in the city, said all causes, including terrorism, were being investigated.
Interfax reported that at least 20 people had been injured, and that one of the blasts involved a device filled with shrapnel.
Tekhnologichesky Institut serves metro lines one and two, with the first hall opening in 1955, followed by the second in 1961.
Sennaya Ploschad - the next station along metro line two - opened two years later, in 1963.
Watching cable news now. Early reports say it was propane canisters which exploded on the train.

Well, Russian state-controled media almost instantly jumped to put the blame on the opposition due to recent wave of protests.
Independednt media and imageboards almost as quickly jumped to put the blame on the government as a way to turn public attention from the recent wave of protests.
Noone even mentions ISIS or any islamist radicals.
>>128070
Quit your bitching, lenta.ru\interfax\etc. didn't blame opposition, there was no a single word

Well, they just happen to have all the guests for a political talk show mere hours after the bombing.
Also lenta.ru isn't exactly state-controlled
>>128073
Ok, didn't know that.
Horrible.
Did anyone stop to think that maybe it was a Belorussian trying to spook their dictator president? That's who was supposed to be meeting with Putin today in St. Petersburg.
>>128074
It's not like it the first time something blows up in Russia just in time to distract public from the political unrest: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999_Russian_apartment_bombings
I guess they get "Why they need us!" speech from "V for Vendetta" very close.
>>128075
Why would he be spooked by it? He does not use subway anyway. I doubt he'd give a single shit about all the dead even if it happened in Minsk - or else he'd do a poor job of being ruthless dictator.
The letter P in islam" stands for peace.
its on
>>128078
All I'm saying is that people are so quick to make this about Putin when the Belorussian guy is hated more by both Russians *and* the west. There are a lot of guys who would like to see his meeting with Putin disrupted for reasons that have very little to do with Putin or Russia.

its ww3 fishing
if this was a false flag for more russian involvement in syria it will probably work. the aesthetic russian ambassador assassination was most likely a false flag as well
Russian channel Ren-TV recently published photo of the supposed "suspect": http://image.glavred.info/images/300x225/Apr2017/446198.jpg
Important note: Ren-TV is not known by it's good credibility, as it's a channel drowned in "documentaries" about ancient aliens and paranormal bullshit, so it could be a fake.
Nevertheless so far it looks like it's gonna be blamed on ISIS.
St. Petersburg anon here. Two explosions, one in Tekhnolojka, one in Sennaya, approximetly in 14:35. Third bomb found and disarmed in Ploshyad Vosstaniya subway station. I'm do not seen it by myself, only on TV and Internet, nothing to say about explosions themselves, but Putin today was in Peterburg and met Alexander Lukashenko, preesident of Belarus .
the terrorist was from Kyrgyzstan (and the man from the picture above isn't guilty, he came to police himself to say it)

>a false flag as well
Or, you know, maybe Muslims _are_ batshit crazy violent mother fuckers?...
>>128206
Not maybe but definitely. But they aren't that stupid - if they made this bombing they'd choose peak hour to maximize causalities and use more powerful bomb to cover entire vagon and potentially derail entire train.

the entire train
don't thank me anon
and no, the schemers behind this won't be found, as usual
>>128092
I hope it's your family that gets bombed, Abdul.

>But they aren't that stupid
You sure about that?
If it was FSB they wouldn't have fucked one of the bombs up, plus there would be a lot more dead, look at the apartment bombings.
>>128070
Change the subject to fight a war somewhere else. Putin style.

> But they [Muslims] aren't that stupid
Sure they are, last year when that Muslim terrorist was looking to detonate a suicide vest in a concert in France, he was too stupid to BUY A TICKET and got turned away at the door.

>If it was FSB they wouldn't have fucked one of the bombs up
They sure as hell fucked up in Riazan in 1999
FSB is surprisingly sloppy IRL despite it's reputation.
