No Filipino has so far been reported among the injured in two deadly blasts that hit the city of Volgograd in Russia, the Department of Foreign Affairs said Monday.
DFA spokesman Raul Hernandez said on his Twitter account Monday evening this was the initial report of the Philippine embassy in Moscow.
“Our Embassy in Moscow reports that there are no Filipinos among those killed and injured in the Volgograd (Russia) blasts,” Hernandez said in his 6:31 p.m. tweet.
The first blast killed at least 17 people in the city’s main railway station on Sunday. Less than 24 hours later, a second explosion killed at least 14 people on a trolley bus. — BM, GMA News
