Reports: Ongoing Terrorist Shootout at Moscow Concert Hall Leaves at Least 100 Casualties
ISIS allegedly claimed responsibility, though thatis rather dubious.
In fact there is ample reason to think the Ukrainians were behind it. FTA:
Crocus City was hosting a concert by the progressive rock band Piknik on Friday. Piknik was banned from Ukraine after performing a concert in occupied Crimea, Ukraine, prompting Ukraine to ban them from the country. The band declared they "do not give a damn” about sanctions or politics in response to Ukraine’s condemnation, recalling that the Soviet Union had also blacklisted them.
The band had not started playing when the terrorists struck and are all safe, multiple outlets reported.
Russian authorities have not given any public statements blaming any individuals or groups for the incident. Some reports indicated that, less than a week ago, the U.S. Embassy in Moscow warned that it had information suggesting terrorists would target concert venues in the near future. It is not clear at press time whether that warning was prompted by threats to Crocus City or similar venues.
End
I wonder if the U.S. didn't have a hand in this too, frankly. At this point I wouldn't put anything past the American govenrment.
The news media has largely yawned over this.
