Iranian media reacts to Russia subway bombing
Iranian media outlets speculate that IS and other militant groups are taking revenge on Russia following their defeats in Iraq and Syria.
On April 3, a major blast on a subway train in St. Petersburg killed at least 14 people and injured more than 40.
As Russia and Iran have been cooperating in the fight against the Islamic State (IS) in Syria, reports about Russia and President Vladimir Putin have become important for many Iranians. The April 3 suicide bombing received blanket coverage from Iranian news agencies and news sites, which seemingly posted updates second by second.
