It comes as President Vladimir Putin has attempted to lay blame on Ukraine for the Islamist attack that claimed at least 133 lives.
US intelligence services have said it’s ‘highly likely’ that IS-K were behind yesterday’s attack Survivors have spoken of the horrors that rocked the Russian capital yesterday after gunmen opened fire at a concert hall in an assault that left at least 133 people dead and scores more wounded. Responsibility for the terror attack at Crocus City Hall, which stands roughly 10 miles northwest of the centre of Moscow, has since been claimed Islamic State Khorasan, an Afghanistan-based ISIS affiliate.
‘We stayed there for some time and then we had to move downstairs. We were there for about an hour and then we went inside.’ Russian state news agencies have since reported that 11 people have been arrested as suspects in the attack, including four people alleged to have been directly involved in the shooting. After a significant delay, President Vladimir Putin has addressed the Russian people to allege that Ukraine was partly responsible for the atrocity.
