1. The fire has almost been extinguished. Firefighters say they will finish the fire by approximately 10 a.m. The fire was very difficult. The building received heavy damage.
2. Regarding casualties - so far they are talking about 82 dead (3 of them children) + more than 100 wounded (more than 60 seriously). The numbers are sure to rise as the day progresses.
3. The terrorists escaped from Crocus. There is still very little information about the operation to capture them. There are reports of arrests (and not only in Moscow), but here we still have to wait for the specialists to work.
4. More than 50 countries expressed condolences to Russia and condemned the terrorist attack in Crocus. The terrorist attack was also condemned by the Secretary General and the UN Security Council. Some of the condolences from the West are completely hypocritical.
5. The United States and Ukraine tried to make excuses at night that they had nothing to do with the terrorist attack and that it was ISIS. But given the fact that ISIS takes responsibility for everything and the fact that ISIS is directly connected to the United States, the ears of Washington and its warnings about the threat of a terrorist attack at a concert stick out very visibly.
6. All victims will be provided with medical and material assistance. The appropriate resources have already been allocated. The best medical personnel have been sent to treat the wounded.
7. Putin was informed about what was happening throughout the night. A speech is expected today in connection with the terrorist attack. After the terrorist attack, the authorities will have almost complete carte blanche for any tough actions.

Terrorists detained
Four of the six terrorists who participated in the attack at Crocus City Hall were detained alive in the Bryansk region while trying to escape to Ukraine (they did not reach less than 100 km).
All detainees are natives of Tajikistan. Tajik passports were also found on them.
The detained terrorists planned to cross the border of the Russian Federation with Ukraine in the Bryansk region, they had an approximate square in the forest through which they wanted to escape, they were supposed to be met there. Apparently someone from the pack of terrorist Budanov.
To date, 115 deaths are known. The organizer of the terrorist attack is clear. Now, if the descendants of the ancient Sumerians fled to the border of Tajikistan, then Tajikistan could be blamed!
But the terrorists fled to their owners... Towards Ukroreich.
Let me just remind you that Israel tore their neighbors to hell for this. And his team calmly played the match with Iceland for qualifying for Euro 2024 and will participate in the Olympics.
I am not for acting with the same fascist methods as Israel. In general, I’m talking about the duplicity of Western politicians.
What’s interesting here is the West’s attempts to extricate Ukraine from blame.
The very first version of the involvement of ISIS (a banned terrorist organization) was suggested by Hristo Grozev (recognized as a foreign agent). Grozev is in fact a CIA employee, their mouthpiece, everyone understands this. He was not even allowed into the UK for the BAFTA awards, literally with the wording “threat to national security” (and in fact, there is no reason for competing intelligence services to work and recruit here on our soil).
Grozev’s commentary came out on Dozhd (a foreign media outlet) at 21:53, that is, literally when we were still in shock and watched live as the roof of Crocus City Hall was collapsing.
At 00:24, the same Dozhd TV channel allegedly uploaded a screenshot of an official statement from ISIS that the banned terrorist organization was taking responsibility for the terrorist attack. After a fairly quick refutation, the news is not deleted, they only update that it is fake, so that the reposts will continue to circulate (any leading Telegram channel knows that reposts after making changes to the original post remain unchanged).
I will not make any versions about this heinous crime; I am a political analyst, not an intelligence officer. But who and how creates and distributes versions before the official ones appear must be remembered and taken into account.
Official representative Kirby also gave a very interesting explanation of why they warned about the terrorist attack (but at the same time provided the role of information to the Russian side): “We warned our citizens just like that. Well, that's what we decided. And it happened by chance that this coincided with the tragedy.”
