Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin on Tuesday visited the capital's hospitals where victims of the January 24 terrorist attack on Moscow's Domodedovo Airport are receiving care.
Medvedev visited Skifilovsky Hospital where 11 victims have been hospitalized.
Putin visited the Vishnevsky Surgery Institute where he wished the victims a swift recovery.
At least 35 people were killed and 180 injured in the suicide attack at Domodedovo Airport's arrivals gate on Monday. Unconfirmed reports said a female suicide bomber was accompanied by a man whose head was ripped off by the blast.
A total of 110 people have been hospitalized, with many in a critical condition.
Medvedev blamed security violations for the deadly blast at the airport.
Some 30 victims of the terrorist attack were operated on overnight, Moscow healthcare chief Leonid Pechatnikov said on Tuesday.
In the wake of the bomb attack, Medvedev instructed the government to implement thorough checks of passengers at major transportation facilities.
"It is necessary to do everything possible to reveal, unmask and bring to justice those responsible for this crime. The nests of these terrorists...must be destroyed," the president said.
Monday's bomb was the second suicide attack in Moscow in less than 12 months. On March 29, two female suicide bombers from the volatile North Caucasus struck the city's subway system during the morning rush hour, killing 39 at two underground stations.
