Beslan website

A local website has been set up in Beslan by several people who were teachers at Beslan Middle School No. 1, and an article describing it runs in Canada's Globe and Mail.

The Guardian describes the activities of the site:

Beslan.ru is compiling a list of all the victims, in what the paper calls "filling in for a government gone AWOL in the wake of the siege".

The site - which is being translated into English - includes news on the political and social aftermath of the violence, appeals for help for the victims and their families, and details on how to donate money. [emphasis added]
