time to search the buildings for

On Wednesday, police hold
ing rifles stood guard outside
school entrances as a trickle of
students arrived.
Only one in four children
turned up, the state-controlled
Rossiya television station re
ported, but officials expected the
numbers to increase gradually.
“We have mixed feelings. We
are afraid, but it’s necessary to
start school and we hope that
things will turn for the better,”
said parent Mila Kiyanova.
Soslan Sikoyev, the region’s
acting regional interior minister,
said authorities were taking extra
security measures, including daily
armed patrols of schools and 24-
hour surveillance. There was also
a proposal to have regular inspec
tions at schools and kindergartens.
“1 was scared during the ter
rorist act at School No. 1,” said
Kaitar Koloyev, who attends
fourth grade elsewhere in Beslan.
“My friends were scared too, but
I tried to calm them, asking them
to not be afraid and telling them
that everything will be all right.”
The siege ended in explo
sions and gunfire, sending terri
fied children - some naked and
bloodied — running from their
ruined school building. Authori
ties say all the hostage-takers
were killed, except one suspect
ed attacker, who was detained.
“Our little Beslan is a very
friendly town. We all know each
other and in no way will terrorism
break us,” said Lyubov Vaniyeva,
a teacher at School No. 6, which
had rows of empty desks as many
parents kept their children home.
