(( Russian officials now admit it was terrorism, not mechanical error, that brought down at least one of the two russian jets that crashed almost simultaneously on tuesday.
Investigators say traces of an explosive called hexogen have been found at the site of one of the crashes, in russia's rostov region. And airline officials suspect the explosion was caused by a suicide bomber--possibly chechen--and that the second plane crash might have been caused by one too.

SOT:SUPER: Paul Duffy, Russian Aviation Specialist

"TWO MUSLIM LADIES, ONE ON EACH AIRCRAFT, BOARDED THE AIRCRAFT--APPARENTLY WITH PLASTIC EXPLOSIVES AROUND THEIR WAISTS."
Aviation officials say hexogen, a white powder, probably wouldn't have shown up on the airport's metal detectors if it was being carried on someone's body. And here in Russia, women are not routinely searched.

ON-CAM; BETH KNOBEL REPORTS/MOSCOW If these are indeed suicide bombers, there are ramifications far beyond russia. If someone here has figured out how to get explosives onto airplanes, it could potentially threaten everyone everywhere who flies.

Domodedovo airport outside moscow, where both doomed flights originated, has one of Russia's most modern security screening systems. However a government official said today the airport had been cited in May for safety deficiencies.
