This is Part VI of the ongoing series entitled “Terror in the Skies, Again?”
By Annie Jacobsen
Over the weekend, it was widely reported that the two airliners which went down almost simultaneously last week in Russia, killing 89 people on board, were the deadly result of terrorists’ bombs.
What hasn’t been widely reported is that Russian investigators now believe the two commercial aircraft were exploded from their toilets.
According to the Russian newspaper Gazeta, “At first, the experts on explosives were puzzled as they saw no traces of explosions in the passenger salons or noses of the planes. However, when the tail part of the TU-154 was examined, in the area where the toilet is, a piece of the edging with the illuminator had been torn away.”
