Islamic State claimed responsibility for the devastating attack in Moscow
The terrorist group Islamic State(ISIS) has taken responsibility for a devastating assault on a concert hall in suburban Moscow, resulting in the deaths of at least 133 individuals, which is one of the deadliest incidents in Russia in recent years.
The death toll in the terror attack at Moscow's Crocus City Hall has risen to 137 people, including three children, Russia's Investigative Committee said Sunday, as the search operation continues for bodies under the rubble.
Russian President Vladimir Putin was informed Saturday that four suspected gunmen responsible for the attack were arrested near Russia's western border with Ukraine, Russian news agencies reported.
As reported by The Spectator Index, ISIS released bodycam footage of the Moscow terrorist attack. The video surfaced on a Telegram account believed to be associated with Amaq, the news outlet linked to IS, as per the SITE monitoring group.
AFP reported that the footage, lasting ninety seconds, depicts multiple individuals with obscured faces and distorted voices, wielding assault rifles and knives. It appears to be set in the lobby of the Crocus City Hall concert venue in Krasnogorsk, located northwest of Moscow.
The attackers can be seen firing multiple bursts of gunfire, while inert bodies are scattered across the scene.
