This document consists of official FSB forensic reports from late 1999 regarding the Volgodonsk apartment bombing and a 2004 Novaya Gazeta investigative article on the legal and social aftermath. The forensic examination, conducted by military unit 34435 experts Vinogradova and Stovbur, confirmed that the September 16, 1999, explosion involved a mixed charge of TNT and hexogen (RDX), likely combined with aluminum and ammonium nitrate. The blast, which occurred near Oktyabrskoye Shosse 35, was estimated at 800–1850 kg in TNT equivalent and attributed to T. A. Batchayev and Yu. I. Krymshamkhalov. The subsequent journalistic report details the state's refusal to compensate victims, the closed trial of Adam Dekkushev and Krymshamkhalov under Judge Marina Komarova, and allegations of systemic medical fraud where 800 victims were purportedly 'examined' in a single day to limit state liability. The document also touches on suicides among survivors and the broader context of the bombings on Guryanova Street and Kashirskoye Highway.
