The Domodedovo International Airport bombing was a suicide bombing in the international arrival hall of Moscow’s busiest airport, Domodedovo International, in Domodedovsky District, Moscow Oblast, on 24 January 2011.
The bombing killed 37 people[2] and injured 173 others, including 86 who had to be hospitalised.[4] Of the casualties, 31 died at the scene, three later in hospitals, one en route to a hospital,[5] one on 2 February after having been put in a coma, and another on 24 February after being hospitalised in grave condition.[2]
Russia’s Federal Investigative Committee later identified the suicide bomber as a 20-year-old from the North Caucasus, and said that the attack was aimed “first and foremost” at foreign citizens.[6]
