Bag Bombing: Minsk terror step by step


It all started with tragedy in Belarus - when a deadly blast struck the metro in the capital, Minsk. Thirteen people have now died, and over two hundred were injured, after an explosive was detonated at a station during the Monday evening rush hour. Two days after the bombing, President Lukashenko declared the authorities knew who was behind the terror attack. Five people have been detained - including a man who's suspected of setting off the explosive. Three of them have reportedly confessed. The motives for the bombing are still unclear. RT's Ekaterina Gracheva describes the first fatal terror attack in the country's modern history.
