Volgograd train station in Russia hit by fatal explosion
Several people are reported dead and injured in city where suicide bomber killed eight in October
At least 10 people have been killed and six others wounded by an explosion at a railway station in southern Russia, according to news agencies in the country.
The explosion was at the railway station in the city of Volgograd, said an official at the ministry's branch in the region. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because she was not authorised to speak to the media.
Russia's southern regions have been destabilised by attacks linked to Islamist rebels who have spread across the region after two separatist wars in Chechnya.
In October, a suicide bomber blew herself up on a city bus in Volgograd, killing six people and injuring about 30.
