At an awards ceremony for troops who fought in Syria, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Wednesday's bombing at a St. Petersburg supermarket was a terror attack, adding that another attack had been thwarted.
Shrapnel embedded in the IED (improvised explosive device) used in the attack – a common terror technique – was meant to injure and/or kill as many victims as possible.
