Chechens continue resistance
The bombers drove a truck loaded with explosives into a Russian military building in a village south-west of the Chechen capital, Grozny. Four Russian troops were injured, though it isn't clear if this was in the explosion, or in a hail of fire from nearby buildings immediately after the attack.
The incident highlights the constant threat that Russian soldiers face, even in areas which they claim to control. Commanders seem resigned to a long campaign, while the security threat is hampering the first attempts to get life back to normal in Grozny.
