(EPA photo)ST PETERSBURG, RUSSIA - An explosion tore through a Metro carriage Monday, killing at least 11 people in what authorities called a probable terrorist attack. Anna Sventik, a St Petersburg resident, was travelling on a metro train that passed through the same station moments after the blast. Authorities closed all St Petersburg metro stations. Putin, who faces elections next year but has as yet no serious rivals, made no mention of the bombing during a brief appearance after talks in St Petersburg with the Belarussian president.
