1999 Tashkent bombings
The 1999 Tashkent bombings occurred on 16 February when six car bombs exploded in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan. The bombs exploded over the course of an hour and a half, and targeted multiple government buildings. It is possible that five of the explosions were a distraction from the sixth, which appeared to be an attempt to assassinate President Islam Karimov. 16 were killed, and over 120 injured.〔Polat, p. 1.〕〔Polat, p. 3.〕
Although the government blamed Islamic rebels - the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU) - critics have cast doubt on this assessment.〔Polat, p. 4.〕
Because of the tight media control in the country, the sequence of events of the attacks is not totally clear.
==The attacks==
According to the official version of the attacks, four to five men drove a car full of explosives up to the main entrance to the Cabinet of Ministers building a few minutes before Karimov was due to speak there. The attackers left the scene. A separate car explosion and gunfight occurred a few hundred meters away, distracting the guards. The attackers fled the scene.〔Polat, p. 2.〕
