An apparent terror attack occurred Monday morning at Domodedovo International Airport near Moscow, which has prompted Russian President Dmitry Medvedev to cancel his trip to the World Economic Forum in Switzerland.
The latest reports say at least 31 people died and over 100 people are injured when a bomb "full of metal pieces" with the equivalent of 15 to 22 pounds of TNT exploded, according to a source in the Russian Investigation Committee by way of the state RIA Novosti news agency.
Eyewitnesses say "several bodies" were laying about the airport terminal.
Authorities are searching for three suspects.
Domodedovo is located about 25 miles southeast of Moscow and is the largest of three airports that serve the Russian capital.
More from the Los Angeles Times and New York Times.
