Less than a week after a recent Russian airline tragedy, a female suicide bomber attacked a Moscow subway station; evidence indicates that Chechen separatists were likely the perpetrators of both attacks. Though the airline tragedy has been confirmed as a terror attack, the perpetrators re- main unknown. A group with links to Islamic jihadis in Pakistan has claimed responsibility for the attack. At the same time, forensic evidence suggests a notorious Chechen rebel group may be behind the attack. Regardless, the prevention of further terrorist attacks is fundamentally tied to Moscow’s deftness in handling grievances of the Muslim-majority state of Chechnya.
Despite the obvious suspicions about terrorist involvement, the Putin administration initially seemed determined to discount that supposition—perhaps to avert critiques of negligent airport security and failure to acknowledge Chechen problems mere days before a scheduled election. Instead, the administration suggested a number of other theories, including industrial sabotage, human error, and technical failure.
Chechen separatists have a long history of high-profile terror "spectaculars". In the chaos surrounding the fall of the Soviet Union, Chechnya declared independence from Russia in 1991 and fought against Federal forces in two wars. The first conflict, between 1992 and 1994, was conventional in nature and largely successful for the Chechen rebels. After 1999, however, they became increasingly reliant on terror attacks. Particularly notable attacks include a series of Russian apartment bombings, which left over 300 dead; the October 2002 Dubrovka Theater siege in Moscow; and the more recent Metro bombing, also in the Russian capital. Traces of RDX, an explosive used in a number of these attacks, were found at both of the recent airplane crash sites. This evidence reinforces the belief that Chechen rebels were responsible for this atrocity.
Of those rebels, a likely suspect may be the radical Chechen warlord Shamil Basayev, a leading separatist figure with a long history of implementing large-scale terror attacks outside Chechnya. He was implicated in the Dubrovka siege, the Metro bombings, and a string of other attacks. He also boasts to have trained a brigade of female suicide bombers (the infamous "Black Widows" ) willing to carry out attacks against Russian institutions, at any time and at any place. Investigators confirm that their focus on the remains of two female passengers: Amanta Nagaeva (on the Tu-134) and Sat-sia Jebirkhanova (on the Tu-154). Close relatives of suspected Chechen rebels who were abducted or killed in. the fighting, both women fit the "Black Widow" profile.

A、Chechen separatists show itself again.
