Three men attacked a rural police station in southern Russia on Monday including at least one suicide bomber, the Interior Ministry said, saying police in the affected area had been put on a high state of alert.
The attack took place in a village in Russia's Stavropol region, close to the volatile majority-Muslim North Caucasus area, where Islamist extremists intent upon carving out a breakaway caliphate have targeted policemen in a series of car bombings and shootings.
"An attack took place on a regional police station," a spokesman for the Interior Ministry in Stavropol told Reuters. "One of the attackers blew himself up, two others were killed."
Initial reports said nobody else - including police officers or civilians - had been hurt.
Suicide bombing shakes southern Russia, but nobody hurt
Well, at least no one else was hurt.
