On September 1, more than 30 armed militants took about 1,200 people hostage in a secondary school in Beslan, a town in northern Russia. The crisis ended on the third day after a fierce exchange of gunfire, but left at least 335 dead -- half of them children.

Chinese President Hu Jintao sent a message on September 8 to Russian President Vladimir Putin, strongly condemning the "atrocious terrorist acts." He said that the Chinese government would offer goods to assist those affected by the tragedy and to show 皇冠体育app's sympathy and support.
