As Paul Seran reported on Friday, terrorists attacked a major music venue located in Krasnogorsk, a city in the northwest of the Moscow region, on Friday afternoon. This came just days after the US Embassy in Russia warned citizens of impending attacks at mass events.
At least 115 Russians were massacred during the attack.
Sputnik reported:
“At least three people in camouflage broke into the ground floor of the Crocus City Hall and opened fire with automatic weapons. The gunmen then threw a grenade or firebomb, which, according to a Sputnik correspondent, started a fire at the site.
Members of the public lay on the floor to escape the gunfire. After 15-20 minutes they started heading towards the exit.
The Special Rapid Response Unit (SOBR) and the Special Purpose Mobile Unit (OMON), as well as the firefighters, rushed to the scene of the accident.
