Russian President Dmitry Medvedev on Wednesday sacked a federal transportation security chief in the wake of a terrorist attack on Moscow's Domodedovo airport.
"I have signed a decree relieving [Maj. Gen. Andrei] Alekseyev of his duties as head of the Interior Ministry transport security directorate," Medvedev said.
More dismissals will follow, he warned.
He ordered Interior Minister Rashid Nurgaliyev to "shake up" the entire transport police to ensure daily transport security.
"If people don't understand how to work, we'll find other people," Medvedev said.
He earlier criticized airport security and said those responsible would be "punished."
