Bomb defused in Grozny



A large explosive device was defused outside the State Theater and Concert Hall in Grozny, Chehnya, today.

The device consisted of over 6 kilograms of high power explosives along with shrapnel packed into a metal container.

Recent weeks have seen a massive upsurge in Chechen rebel attacks on Russian security forces.

It is difficult to obtain independent reports on events as journalists are banned from the small Republic but it's estimated that around 12 Russian soldiers, 5 Police Officers and 6 Rebels have been killed this week in Chechnya and neighbouring Dagestan.
