black widow 黑寡婦

black widow
繁：黑寡婦
简：黑寡妇

「黑寡婦」是以婦女為基礎的恐怖分子，其成員多是車臣戰爭中丈夫為對抗俄軍而戰死的遺孀。由於很多時大眾對女性襲擊者之防範較男性低，加上身上罩袍亦可遮蔽襲擊裝置，故此她們毋須太多訓練，只是負責按鈕進行襲擊，甚至僅走到特定地點由其他人代為引爆便可。

This attack was followed by other female suicide attacks on military targets in Chechnya. But it was the Black Widows‘ (a term first coined by the Russians who labeled them chyornye vdovy) strikes on “soft” civilian targets in Russia proper that gained them their greatest notoriety.
