The 2003 Tushino bombing was a terrorist attack that occurred on July 5, 2003, at Tushino Airfield in Moscow, Russia, killing 15 people and injuring up to 60 more.
According to the official version, two Chechen shahidka (Muslim female suicide bombers) committed suicide attacks at the entrance to a rock festival called Krylya (Russian: Крылья, lit. Wings) being held at the Tushino airfield in north-western Moscow. The first bomber, 20-year-old Zulikhan Elikhadzhiyeva, detonated her bomb which only partially exploded, killing only herself.[1] Only a few meters away from where Elikhadzhiyeva had detonated, 26-year-old Zinaida Aliyeva detonated her explosives 15 minutes later, killing 11 people on the spot while at least 60 people were injured, with four of them later dying in hospital.[2] Russian authorities stated that had the suicide bombers been able to enter the airfield, the casualties would have been significantly higher.[2] They opened a criminal investigation into the attack.
The Tushino bombing was part of a string of suicide attacks in Russia that had occurred within the previous four months, killing 165 people in total, in the context of the Second Chechen War.
