Volgograd railway station blast LIVE UPDATES — RT News:

A blast ripped through a railway station in Volgograd in Russia’s south, killing at least 13 people. It was reportedly caused by a suicide bomber, who set off the bomb just before it could be discovered at a checkpoint.

Explosion at the train station must have been quite powerful, because it was clearly heard form a considerable distance, Aleksandr Kornev, a Volgograd resident living in the station area, told RT. The assessment is consistent with the visible damage to the building, where the blast wave broke many windows on both floors and damaged a heavy wooden door.
