Tragedy in Russia

The Russian School hostage crisis has ended sadly. Exactly what happened is still unclear but many explosions and a large amount of small arms fire have been exchanged between Russian special forces and the terrorists. The Russian news agency is reporting that the roof of the building the hostages were held in has collapsed. At least some of the hostages have escaped, many wounded and are being evacuated. My heart goes out to the victims, their families and the Russian people.
