A Toxic Cloud
Paris. More than 20 000 people were evacuated from their homes after a warehouse fire in the port of Nantes, western France, produced a toxic cloud of gas and smoke eight miles long.
The fire in a fertilizer warehouse containing hundreds of tons of ammonium nitrate, started early in the morning. A thousand firemen and police fought to bring it under control as thick clouds of whitish-yellow smoke poured from the top of the building. The danger to health led local authorities to order evacuation out of the area. Some people were taken to hospital for observation. The fire was finally brought under control in midafternoon.
Those who had left their homes were advised to spend the night away. Schools and community centers were taken outside the affected area.

Beslan Tragedy
On September 1, 2004, at about 9.00 a.m. Moscow time, a group of about 30 gunmen seized School 1in Beslan, North Ossetia, 30 km from the capital, Vladikavkaz. The terrorists took schoolchildren and parents hostages and drove them into a gym. More than 1,000 children and adults were taken hostages. Apparently, one or more of the female assailants – so called “Black Widows” blew themselves up in the gym where the hostages were being kept. The gym was also apparently wired with explosives. Thirty or so hostages made a run for it, and were shot at. The culmination of that was an assault of Russian special forces, which used helicopters, tanks, and armored cars.
335 people lost their lives in the Beslan terrorist attack.

They also threatened to blow up the building in case of a counter-attack. The rebels released about 200 people, mostly women and children.

Roof Collapses on Crowded Water Park
This tragedy occurred at 7:15 Saturday evening, during the peak weekend crowds. Some of the visitors were at a first floor disco celebrating Valentine’s Day, while others were there for a child’s birthday party. At the moment of the collapse, almost 1,300 people were in the complex, including 200 employees.
The rescue operation was hampered by the bitter cold (minus 18 Celsius), as well as the difficulty of getting emergency equipment to the spot. Rescue workers, using sniffer dogs, worked by hand to free the survivors, many of whom required emergency treatment for injuries and exposure to the cold. The rescue teams pumped warm air into the debris in order to keep the survivors from freezing, most of whom were clad only in bathing suits. By late Sunday, Luzhkov told Channel One television “there is no hope for finding any survivors.” The roof collapse killed at least 27 people and injured scores.

Act of Terrorism or Structure Design Error?
On Saturday evening, February 14, 2004, the massive domed roof of the Transvaal Park recreational facility collapsed, killing at least 27 people and injuring scores. It was the pool area of the complex which suffered the direct impact of the devastation.This area contained a wave-pool, ceiling-high water-slides, a children’s pool and even an artificial beach. It is estimated that more than 400 people were gathered around these points when the massive roof fell from a height of over 30 meters. One of the lucky ones to escape was Roman Yazymin, 29, who was using a solarium on the second floor when the tragedy struck. Suddenly he heard a tremendous crash. “It was not an explosion, but the noise of metal collapsing,” he stated.” When we ran to collect our belongings, everything was covered in blood.”
The authorities were quick to note that the tragedy was not an act of terrorism – but that was the first thought in the minds of many who witnessed the tragic accident or first heard of it. If not an act of terrorism, then what? Who is to blame for the tragedy? Anyway, the final word rests with the authorized investigators.

Polish Tragedy
Poland faced a tragedy – roof collapse in the southern town of Katowice during a carrier-pigeon show. An estimated 700 people were on attendance at the 10,000 square-meter at the time of collapse. The accident claimed the lives of 67 people, approximately 150 people reported injuries. Several are still missing. Polish emergency crews worked around the clock in bitter cold for three days in the search for survivors buried below the twisted metal and broken concrete. So, what was the cause of the roof collapse? The authorities say that it was the snow and ice that had not been properly cleared from the roof. Poland has been suffering a severe cold spell, and some speculate that could have played a role in weakening the hall’s structure. Nevertheless, the reasons for the collapse are still unclear and Polish authorities make their best to determine the cause.

Russia has increasingly become a target of terrorist attacks, allegedly to militants who
Continue to press for Chechen independence from the Russian Federation. Two housing blocks on the outskirts of Moscow were bombed in September of 1999, killing a total of 213 people. Another two apartment blocks were bombed on Buinaksk and Volgodonsk.
In August 2000, a bomb exploded in a crowded underpass near the Pushkinskaya subway Station in central Moscow, 13 people were killed. On October 23, 2002, Chechen rebels stormed a Moscow theater during a performance of the musical Nord-Ost, taking an estimated 900 people hostage. The standoff ended three days later, when Russian troops raided the building. 129 hostages died in the takeover, almost all as a result of a gas attack that was used by federal forces to subdue the rebels. In July 2003, two female suicide bombers detonated themselves at a Moscow rock concert killing 15 people. A violent explosion in a Moscow subway train (February 6, 2004) killed 39 people and injured over one hundred. And only God knows what else may happen in the future.

The first media reports of the incidents came Tuesday, August 24 around midnight, Moscow time. The two southbound planes disappeared from radars within minutes of each other, shortly before 11 p.m. Officials confirmed that a hijack alarm was sent from one of the planes before it disappeared and that another jet had broadcasted SOS message.
One jet, a Tupolev 134 carrying 35 passengers and 9 crew, crashed near the city of Tula.
Witnesses on the ground heard an explosion from the second plane, Flight 1303 from Moscow to Volgograd with 44 on board when it crashed. The plane fell from 10,000 metres, there were no survivors.
Everything points to the possibility that the accidents may have been terrorist attacks. Experts cite evidence of small blasts at the rear of the planes. In both crashes, the tail end of the plane ended up far ahead of the nose, which, experts say, could only have happened as a result of a blast. Experts said that explosives the size of a bar of soap would be enough to produce such results. The investigation of the two crashes is still going on.

One of the worst typhoons in almost three decades has hit Japan and claimed at least 80 lives and hundreds of casualties. That disaster, which meteorologists reported had wind speeds of up to 229 kilometers per hour (142 m.p.h.), is the latest powerful storm to sweep the island country. Japan has been hit by a record 10 typhoons this storm season. A 24-metre-high wave (approximately the height of an eight-story building) was detected near the southern island of Shikoku. It was the highest wave to hit the Japanese archipelago since the authorities started to monitor them in 1970.
To top off the trouble, an earthquake registering 6.8 on the Richter scale hit Japan about 150 miles north of Tokyo. At least 27 people were reported killed, and more than 2,000 injured in the quake. The earthquake was the deadliest to hit Japan since the Kobe earthquake claimed more than 6,300 victims in 1995.
