Russia will never give in to terrorism, says Putin

AS Moscow reeled from twin suicide bombings that killed 15 people at a weekend rock concert, President Vladimir Putin vowed that Russia would never give in to terrorism.

He also said that the Chechen rebels blamed for the attack are supported by international terrorist groups.

No-one has claimed responsibility for the blasts, but a passport found at the scene reportedly shows that at least one of the two female bombers was a Chechen.
