A spokesman for the republic's Interior Ministry said the driver of the explosives-laden small Zhiguli automobile smashed through a gate of the base and headed for an area where soldiers are quartered in tents, but soldiers opened fire on him before he reached the center of the base. The spokesman said the driver rammed the car into a military truck, at which time it exploded. (AP Photo/Abdula Magomedov, News Team)
