https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Widow_(Chechnya)Female suicide bombers, referred to as shahidka by Chechens (meaning a female martyr) or "Black Widows" by Russians (as they have often had a husband [and/or children] killed by the Russian army or the Kadyrovtsy), comprise a clear majority of Chechen suicide attackers. This trend stands in direct contrast to ongoing suicide bomb campaigns in Israel and Iraq, where women constitute only a small minority of suicide bombers.[1]
The term "Black Widows" probably originates from these women being widows of men killed by the Russian forces in Chechnya (the connotation of black widow spider is intended). The Black Widows wear black dresses and dark clothing that covers their bodies from head to toe.[6] This attire is supposed to symbolize their personal losses from the Chechen wars.[6] In 2003, the Russian journalist Yulia Yuzik coined the phrase "Brides of Allah" (Невесты Аллаха) when she described the process by which Chechen women were recruited by Basayev and his associates;[7] the phrase was also used again after the Beslan attack, as the title of an installment of the Russian NTV programme Top Secret (Совершенно секретно).
These images were filmed before the women went to their deaths.
Both blew themselves up.
This one didn't want to say her name.
She just said: "I'm doing this for Allah and I don't want my name to be important in any way."
