Beslan Anniversary

Via RFE/RL:
The North Ossetian town of Beslan is beginning three days of mourning to mark the ninth anniversary of a school hostage taking that left 334 people -- including 186 children -- dead. 
Most of the hostages that died were killed when Russian security forces stormed the school and ended the siege, which began on the first day of the new school year.
