The 1999 Vladikavkaz bombing took place in a crowded market in Vladikavkaz, North Ossetia–Alania, Russia on 19 March 1999, killing 52 and injuring 168. The bombers were tried and convicted on 15 December 2003. The court also convicted the men of the bombing of a military housing unit known as "Sputnik" on 18 May 1999 that left four dead and 17 injured and a Vladikavkaz train station on 28 June 1999, which injured 18 people. In addition, the court found the men guilty in the kidnapping of four Russian officers and taking them to Chechnya for ransom on 30 July 1999. The officers were later released.
