The blast, equivalent to seven kg of TNT, ripped through the international arrivals hall killing 36 people and injuring more than 150.

Umarov's video message was posted late on 7 February on the Kavkaz Centre website, which often publishes statements from North Caucasian militants.

In his message, Umarov (alias Abu Usman), emir of the Caucasus Emirate, an alliance of Islamist militants operating across the region, stated that he ordered the attack in retaliation for perceived injustices suffered by Muslims in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Sudan and Algeria. 

He stated that the suicide bomber deliberately targeted the international arrivals hall in order to kill foreigners. Umarov also warned that the wave of "special operations" will continue until "the xenophobic people of Russia and the Russian regime understand that they need to leave the North Caucasus".
