15 Dead at Russia's Wings Festival By Philthy Phil, 8-Foot Viking Sunday, July 6, 2003 @ 7:37 AM
The Saturday afternoon blasts occurred when two women blew themselves up at separate gates into the Tushino airfield where up to 40,000 specatators were gathered to watch some of Russia's best known rock bands including: Sergei Galanin and Serga, Va-Bank, Moralny Kodex, Chizh and Co, Zakhar Mai + Shiva, Raznye Lyudi, Nochnye Snaipery, Krematory, Kipelov, Korol i Shut, Paperny T.A.M., B-2, 5nizza, Splin, Sveta KoliBaBa, Zdob si Zdub, Garik Sukachev and Neprikasaemye, Mashina Vremeni, and Zemfira.
Most of the casualties were caused by the second explosion, which took place about 10 minutes after the first and struck a gate through which the audience was being evacuated.
Guards at the festival entrances had been suspicious of the women and prevented them from entering the grounds.
