The United States condemned the terrorist attack on a bus in Russia's North Ossetia republic on Thursday that left 11 people dead, reported the dpa.
"The United States condemns the heinous act of terrorism that took
place today," State Department deputy spokesman Robert Wood said.
An explosion hit a crowded minibus in the populous city of
Vladikavkaz as as it stopped for exiting passengers at the entrance
to a movie theatre and market. Regional authorities said a
preliminary investigation pointed to terrorism, but the source of the
attack was unclear.
"We express our condolences to the families of the victims and the
government of Russia for the loss of life and injuries that resulted
from this terrible act," Wood said. "There can be no justification
for such terrorism."
