Volgograd 'bomb plotter' shot dead in Dagestan

Security forces in Russia's troubled Dagestan region have shot dead the suspected organiser of the Volgograd suicide bombings during a house siege.

Dzhamaldin Mirzayev, 30, died along with another man after opening fire on security forces surrounding the house, Russian security sources say.

A third man surrendered during the siege in the town of Izberbash.

Two attackers killed 34 other people in the bomb attacks in Volgograd on consecutive days in late December.
