What we know about the Moscow concert attack
Men in camouflage broke into a Moscow concert hall and opened fire, shooting an unknown number of people, Russia’s prosecutor general said.

TASS, Russia’s state-owned news agency, and RIA Novosti are reporting that Russia’s FSB security agency has put the preliminary casualty count at 40 dead and more than 100 injured.

A fire also started inside Crocus City Hall, a large concert venue northwest of central Moscow. Video captured chaotic evacuation efforts and helicopters were dumping water on the blaze.
Firefighters have evacuated about 100 people from the basement of the building and efforts are underway to rescue people from the roof, Russian emergency officials said.

A popular rock band was scheduled to play what appeared to be a sold-out show at the venue, which has a maximum capacity of more than 9,000 people.

I would not wish being on the receiving end of this on anyone...(okay, well, maybe a few Democrats.)

 Chaos in Russia At least 40 dead, over 100 injured after multiple gunmen open fire at popular concert hall near Moscow

Five gunmen dressed in camouflage clothing opened fire with automatic weapons at people at a concert in the Crocus City Hall near Moscow, killing at least 14 and wounding scores in one of the worst attacks on Russia in years.

At least 40 people were killed and more than 100 injured when five gunmen dressed in camouflage opened fire with automatic weapons at people at a concert in the Crocus City Hall near Moscow, in one of the worst such attacks on Russia in years.

Flames leapt into the sky and plumes of black smoke rose above the venue, Reuters pictures and video showed.

Russian media reported a second blast at the venue and there were reports that some of the gunmen had barricaded themselves somewhere in the building.

The shooting appeared to have begun at a concert of the band “Picnic.”

“Suddenly there were bangs behind us – shots. A burst of firing – I do not know what,” one witness who asked not to be named told Reuters.

Apparently ISIS has made a post claiming responsibility for the attack. Who knows if it's true.

ISIS has claimed responsibility for an attack at a large concert hall in the Moscow area that left at least 40 people dead and nearly 150 injured on Friday.

The attack began when gunmen donning combat gear burst into Crocus City Hall, where concertgoers were gathering to hear the Russian band Picnic, and opened fire.

The gunmen also threw explosives inside the concert hall during the attack, which set the building on fire, Russian media reported. 

People were being evacuated, but some remained trapped inside the burning building, Russian media said.

Putin delivers speech to the nation, accusing Ukraine aiding the terrorists.

Putin says Russia has information indicating that Ukraine had been preparing a part of the border, a so-called “window” through which the terrorists could leave Russia and enter Ukraine.

THEY’RE BAAAACK! Islamic State (ISIS) takes credit for mass shooting massacre of Christians in Moscow
MARCH 22, 2024 BY BARENAKEDISLAM

The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for an attack at a concert hall in Moscow, Russia, has left 40 people dead and hundreds wounded, when Muslim gunmen fired at crowds at the Crocus City Hall music venue in Moscow late on March 22. The U.S. warned Russia a few days ago about intel on a planned terror attack in Moscow.


FOX9 In a statement posted by its Aamaq news agency, the group said it attacked a large gathering of Christians in the city of Krasnogorsk on the outskirts of the Russian capital of Moscow, killing and wounding hundreds.

Crowds of people were attending a concert by Picnic, a famed Russian rock band. The hall is able to accommodate 6,000 people.  Russian news outlets said people were being evacuated from the venue, but an unspecified number of people could have been trapped inside.
