COLD WAR
The Cold War was the tense relationship between the United States (and its allies) and the Soviet Union (USSR) (and its allies) between the end of World War II and the demise of the Soviet Union. Even before the war started, they disliked Germany's ideology and policies but they traded with Germany, and the Soviet Union continued to do so after the Battle of France. While they were allies, the USSR and its western allies (the United States and Great Britain) still did not agree with each other, in terms of government, but both thought that it was more important to work together fighting against Germany and its allies.

The first bomb went off at 17:33 on a crowded train between the Izmailovskaya and Pervomaiskaya stations of the Moscow Metro. At 18:05, a second bomb detonated inside the grocery store close to KGB headquarters. Five minutes later the third bomb exploded near yet another grocery store on the 25th of October Street, just a few hundred meters away from Soviet Communist Party headquarters. On February 8, 1977, Izvestia, an official newspaper of the Soviet government, reported that the attacks had resulted in seven deaths and thirty-seven injuries.
