Russians deploy soldiers to Chelyabinsk


Moscow has sent over 300 hundred troops to the Ural Region of southern Russia following two militant attacks this week which resulted in two Russian troops being wounded, a fuel depot destroyed and a number of Russian weapons stolen.

Reports from the region indicate that at least 12 Armoured Personnel Carriers, 300 combat troops and a number of tanks were deployed in and around Chelyabinsk. A large number of checkpoints have been set up throughout the region and police barracks' defences have been bolstered.
