Does Russia gets many terrorist attacks or attempts?
This year in Russia there were two acts of terrorism.
On April 3, a suicide bomber exploded in the metro of St. Petersburg. Killed 16 people. Strangely enough, no terrorist organization clearly took responsibility for this attack. The terrorist was a native of Kyrgyzstan, who received Russian citizenship.
On August 19, a terrorist with a knife and an ax attacked passers-by in Surgut. Fortunately, no one died. 7 people were injured, but the terrorist was shot by a policeman. Responsibility to myself took IGIL.
In the past, in 2016, there was one terrorist act. On February 15, during a check on the police station in Dagestan, a car with a suicide bomber exploded. Two policemen were killed.
In 2015, there was also a terrorist act. Unknown fired at tourists in an ancient fortress in the same Dagestan. One tourist died.
In 2014, there were three similar acts of terrorism in Dagestan and one in Chechnya.
In 2013, there were 10 terrorist acts. Including three high-profile terrorist attacks in Volgograd - at different times there were explosions in the bus, at the railway station and in the city trolleybus. In total, 40 people were killed in the terrorist attacks in 2013.
It seems that the FSB began to work much better. Despite the terrorist attack in St. Petersburg. This year, 16 high-profile terrorist attacks were prevented. The latest case - more recently - a few days ago detained a group of people from Central Asia who planned suicide bombings in Moscow on New Year's holidays in Moscow. Last year, 42 terrorist attacks were prevented.
