And at Toronto's National Post, "Sochi terror fears grow as new Islamic militant video threatens to strike tourists at Olympics":
An Islamic militant group in Russia’s North Caucasus claimed responsibility Sunday for twin suicide bombings in the southern city of Volgograd last month and posted a video threatening to strike the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.More at London's Daily Mail, "Hunt for 'Black Widow' suicide bomber on the loose in Sochi: Wife of dead militant feared to be targeting Winter Olympics - along with THREE other female terrorists."
There had been no previous claim of responsibility for the bombings, which killed 34 people and heightened security fears before next month’s Winter Games.
In the video, two Russian-speaking men warned President Vladimir Putin that “If you hold these Olympics, we will give you a present for the innocent Muslim blood being spilled all around the world: In Afghanistan, in Somalia, in Syria.”
They added that “for the tourists who come, there will be a present, too.”
