“Russia on Friday launched an investigation after an army unit accidentally fired mortar shells into the grounds of a boarding school in the troubled North Caucasus region of Dagestan. Russian television showed smashed windows at the school in the town of Buinaksk after the early-morning incident, in which none of the sleeping children was injured. The country’s military investigators acknowledged in a statement Friday that the shells were fired by a neighbouring military unit that was taking part in an ‘anti-terrorist’ operation against militants.”
