Police in Moscow have evacuated almost 3,000 people from three different railway stations after receiving an anonymous bomb threat.
Police used sniffer dogs to check the Kazansky, Leningradsky and Yaroslavsky railway stations.
All three stations are located on the same Moscow square.
A source told Sputnik News: ‘Phone calls warning of bombs at the Kazansky and Leningradsky railway stations prompted evacuations of a thousand of people from each site.
‘Further 750 people were evacuated from the Yaroslavsky station. We are waiting for explosive-sniffing dogs.’
After carrying out the search, Russian police said they had not found any explosive devices, the TASS news agency reported.
The incident comes as aviation experts said they believe the Tu-154 plane which crashed into the Black Sea killing all 92 people on board was an act of terror.
