Two terrorist attacks on the Moscow subway...

The first attack on one of the world"s busiest metro systems occurred just before 8:00 a.m. (04:00 GMT) at the Lubyanka station under the headquarters of the Federal Security Service (FSB) as people hurried to work.

That blast took the lives of 24 people. The second, some 40 minutes later four stops down the line at Park Kultury station, killed another 12. Two have since died of injuries sustained in the bombings, which injured more than 60 people.

The bombings were the first major terrorist attacks in the Russian capital for six years. Full service has by now been restored on the Sokolnicheskaya metro line, including for the stations where the bombings occurred.

Two women and a man are wanted in connection with the terrorist attack, a law enforcement source said.

Eyewitnesses described the chaos and panic that followed the blasts.

"I was in shock. I was deafened by the sound of the blast, but at first I didn"t think it was a terrorist attack.
