2:30 pm - russian channel 1 has finally decided to do some news... fucking idiots.

158 kids hospitalized, according to cnn, according to russian wire service.

the cnn reporter is asking, in russian - has anyone been freed? - but the passer-by aren't replying to him.

seemingly quiet and calm, then "a very large explosion here" - coming from God knows where

it's been roughly an hour and a half since it all began
