What further depths of depravity can the human race now sink to? That children should be slaughtered for an ideal, whatever that ideal may be shows that we have no right to call ourselves civilised.
Ian, Northumberland
The killing and maiming of civilians in any war or cause is a crime, the killing and maiming of children is an inane act of barbarism. Whatever these peoples aim, crusade or cause is unknown to me.
Andy Appels, Grimsby
I can't believe that western media still regard these animals as "gunmen", "rebels" or "hostage-takers". It looks they're sympathising with them not labeling them with real name - terrorists.
Boris, Serbia
Living in the city that has seen many attacks, I still am shocked that these people would use children for their cause. The worst of it all is that these kids are not the last ones. Maybe tomorrow it will be my neigbours and I.
Kostya Gusihin, Moscow
Stunned beyond belief at the images of children hurt or probably dead. Using children like this really is the lowest of the low. The people of Beslan should know that all right thinking people in the world are still praying for them and their children.
Richard, Cork, Ireland
Indiscriminately attacking civilian populations including kids and the aged, is not a Chechen monopoly - not since Guernica, Hamburg, Coventry, Dresden, Tokyo, Fallujah and so many more. If we condemnn the Chechen terrorists, we should also remember what has been done on the orders of "civilised" governments.
Augustin McEvoy, Switzerland
My heard was about to explode when I heard that these animals start killing the innocent children! What kind of religion is that if it send it's followers to kill children? They all should be hunter down and killed!
Alex, United States
The one place that you trust your children to be safe, whilst out of your supervision, is at school. These animals have sunk to a new low in terrorism. Forget the political spin, the ordinary general public of this world need to unify to show that it will not be tolerated.
Neil, Ipswich
I watched in horror as the school siege unfolded. I have served my time in the British Army in Northern Ireland. To allow so many civvies into the danger zone is unbelieveable. The scene with army special forces and civvies running along in the same group (how do you tell the good guys from the bad guys) is beyond anything.

It looks like Putin did not have too many alternatives to storming the building as two days with no food and water would badly damage or even kill hostages, especially younger ones. I guess, giving independence to Chechnya clearly is not on Putin's agenda, and also there seem to be more cons than pros to Chechnya independece within Russia.
Olga, London
How can these people get away with torturing and killing children? What is happening with the world? Being a mother myself, I just want to hold my little girl in my arms forever so that no harm comes to her and I expect that is how those poor parents feel. My heart goes out to all of them.
Sonya Mouncher, Essex
Blood, blood, blood. The terrorists aren't human they are animals. It's like another twin towers. Please stop blood, we want live in peace.
Tommaso, Italy
Whatever the Chechens hoped to achieve from this barbaric act will now be lost in Russia's response. Any sympathy that there may have been for the Chechen cause will have evaporated across the globe. They now stand alone in the world as pariahs in much the same was as al Qaeda in the days following 9/11.
Mark, Otley, West Yorkshire
These Muslim terrorist should be hunted down and handed over to the parents for retribution. These people (terrorists) are nothing but scum. We must back President Putin's hard line against these terrorist.
Neil, Neath, South Wales
I'm from Russia. This last week has been very horrible for my country, especially this day. I thank you for moral support. I am crying because these are my people, these children are from my country. God help us save my people.
Rauf Enikeev, Moscow, Russia
When is the day that this will stop? When will we finally learn to forgive and look out for one another? When are we going to grow up? I don't have the words to describe how angry I am, my heart goes out to the families that have lost someone. Lock up those captors and throw away the key.
Terence, Dublin, Ireland
This has to stop. I cannot live in a world like this. Who wins by shooting children?
Roisin, Birmingham
These barbaric individuals should be tortured beyond belief for the atrocity they have carried out against the innocent children. The families of the deceased should be left to serve their own justice on the individuals concerned rather than let them be captured and sentenced throught the courts.
Jason, Manchester
To see the distressed parents was heartbreaking enough, but to see the faces on those innocent children broke my heart in pieces. What is this world coming too?
Karin Connor, London
I can understand a cause, a belief and wanting to fight for it. What I will never understand is the human need to hurt, destroy, kill their own. And children, kids have absolutely no idea why these fundamentalists would threaten them with death. They are bullies, men and woman using children to prove a point. Point taken. You are cowards. I hope they rot in their own blood.
PJ Goodall
These people are not warriors, they are simply cowards who deserve to die.
Stuart, Romford, Essex
How can anyone justify holding a school along with innocent children? And now we find many of the hostages have been killed in the attempt to free them?
Tom Carter, Essex
Sick animals.
Micah Otieno, Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania
Using children as hostages in their conflict classifies these people as animals. They have not helped their cause at all.
Mike
I commend the Russian authorities on showing restraint for as long as they did. Given past situations involving Chechen rebels, I think the Russians had no choice but to take action as they did, and doing so probably saved hundreds of lives.
Dan, Dublin, Ireland
It just shows the caliber of the Chechen separatist supportes when they have to wage war on women and children.
Mark Salmon, Perth, Australia
What words can possibly ease the pain of those affected by this thoughtless brutality? How can people even hope to gain sympathy by slaughtering these inoccents? I'm at work now, but when I get home I'm going to hug my kids and when they ask why I'm crying I will try to explain. My sympathy goes out to the children, parents, teachers and other victims of this outrage.
Andy
I am sure that the Russians did not want to attack at first, it is clear that the attack was not planned. But imagine the sitiation when you hear they are killing the people inside the school, what would you have done? I agree with the Russians - there is no other way in this situation.
Vera Prince, France
