According to the source in the power structures of North Ossetia, the terrorists brought a large amount of explosives, weapons and ammunition to the captured school in advance, Gazeta.ru reports, citing Interfax. "Explosives, weapons and ammunition were brought to school in the summer during the repair under the guise of building materials," said a source in the power structures of North Ossetia, close to the investigation.
According to him, the organizers of the terrorist attack hid explosives, weapons and ammunition in the meeting. Referring to the information obtained as a result of polls by people who were hostage, a source in power structures said that terrorists opened the caches immediately after the seizure of the school building.
Meanwhile, according to Gazeta.ru, as the killed militants counted, it turned out that all these days were downplayed, like the number of hostages. Initially, it was reported that terrorists are no more than twenty. However, twenty militants were killed by eight in the evening on Friday, and the shootout and the rest went until late at night. As the FSB announced, among the twenty destroyed terrorists there were ten Arabs and even one Negro. Three more managed to take alive.
Judging by the stories of the hostages who selected from the captured school unharmed, the explosion, after which the assault began, occurred by chance. Plastic plate bottles were fixed between two basketball baskets on the cable, to which they were screwed with tape. As the liberated schoolgirl told Gazeta.ru, one of the bottles peeled off, fell into the crowd and exploded.
However, the assault was inevitable and, most likely, all this time was planned. According to the released, contrary to official reports that terrorists refuse to get in touch, accept food and water, and demand only the release of the militants who attacked Ingushetia, from the first hours of the school capture the terrorists nominated the only demand - signing the decree on the withdrawal of Russian troops from Chechnya.
In addition, from the testimonies, it became known that the authorities refused to continue negotiations, despite the threat of militants to shoot prisoners if the authorities would ignore them. The militants could not get through to any official of North Ossetia, including the president and speaker of the republican parliament - they simply did not approach the phone, although the children of some of them were in the captured school.
The militants wrote their demands on the film to transfer them to President Vladimir Putin. Nobody saw notes.
