Putin to Security: Kill Terrorists "On the Spot;" Result of Terror Blast in St. Petersburg Market

Russian President Vladimir Putin warned today that armed criminals would be "liquidated on the spot," calling the blast that tore through a Saint Petersburg supermarket and wounded 14 people an "act of terror," according to the AFP (Agence France-Presse) website.


Last night, a homemade bomb placed in a locker at the supermarket in northwestern Saint Petersburg -- Russia' second largest city -- went off sowing panic among customers and wounding 14 people including a pregnant woman.


"As you know, an act of terror took place in Saint Petersburg yesterday," Putin said today, at a ceremony to award officers who took part in Russia's Syrian campaign.


He added he ordered the nation's security services to "act decisively" and "liquidate bandits on the spot."
