Moscow Mayor Denounces Restaurant Bombing as Terrorist Act

An explosive device detonated at the Balzi Rossi restaurant in central Moscow on Saturday, killing three people, including the woman bomber, and wounding at least 21, Russian officials said. Mayor Sergei Sobyanin called it a 'brutal terrorist act' and vowed those responsible would be punished. No one has claimed responsibility, and investigators have not linked the blast to earlier attacks or the war in Ukraine.
