Russia was in shock Monday after militants bombed two subway stations during morning rush hour, killing 38 people and injuring 102. It was the worst attack in Moscow since the February 2004 suicide bombings that killed at least 39 people on a subway train. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev ordered security beefed up on subways, train stations and airports across the country, adding that Moscow would "fight terror without hesitation until the end." The Moscow metro, built in the 1930s, has in the past been a popular terror target: Armenian separatists first attacked it in 1997.
