    Body of Vladikavkaz blast victim to be transported to Armenia


    Body of an Armenian killed in terror act in Vladikavkaz, Russia, will
    be transported to Armenia on Saturday, officials said.

    On Saturday ten victims of the terror act that had hit southern
    Russia's city of Vladikavkaz (North Osetia) will be buried, while
    bodies of two more victims, a citizens of Armenia and Ukraine, will be
    transported home, Russian media reported citing officials.

    `The burial is fully being organized by city's administration. We'll
    pay all the spending to transport and bury all the killed people.
    We'll support transportation of an Armenian, Arsen Elbakian, and a
    Ukrainian, Romanova Olga,' a spokesperson to Mayor of Vladikavkaz told
    Interfax agency. Spokesperson added that the city's administration
    will also meet expenses on gravestones for burial.

    On September 9 a suicide-bomber blasted a car near a central market in
    Vladikavkaz, killing 16 people (of them 3 died in hospitals) and
    injuring at least 160 others. The UN Security Council issued Friday a
    statement strongly condemning the terrorist attack as `criminal and
    unjustifiable.' Armenian President has sent to his Russian counterpart
    a message of condolence offering his deepest sorrows over the deadly
    terrorist act. According to officials of Russian Emergency Services,
    the explosive weighed 40 kilogrammes of TNT equivalent. No group has
    claimed responsibility for the attack.
