“Multiple Bombings Raise Fears for Olympics” Author: CNN Source: CNN Date: December 30

Multiple Bombings Raise Fears for Olympics (Dec. 29): At least sixteen people are killed in a suicide bombing at a railroad station in Volgograd, a city in southern Russia. Nearly three dozen others are wounded. (Dec. 30): Another suicide bombing takes place on a trolley bus in the same city. At least ten people are killed and ten others are wounded. Both explosions come just six weeks before the Winter Olympics are being held in Sochi, 400 miles away from Volgograd. Never has a host country experienced this level of violent terrorism so close to the Olympic Games. President Putin vows to double security in all of Russia's railway stations and airports. During the Olympics, more than 40,000 law enforcement officials will be on hand at the event.
