1) That was a diversion (an explosion during the fueling procedure - not a test of course). So that's not a catastrophe during the launch and that doesn't hurt Russian tech somehow. Everything can be blown up by a terrorist, even the NYC Twins... That doesn't mean they (the Twins) had some lacks in construction. That means your secret service has failed. The same thing has happened in the USSR on 24 October 1960.
2) How many cosmonauts/astronauts among those who died?
3) Was that rocket used at lest once?
4) How does it relate to "Soyuz" rocket - the only rocket used buy the USSR and Russia to send humans from around the globe to the space?

Please don't use the terrorist act as a an example of bad tech. In other words, don't try to play David Copperfield. That's not yours, man.
