It is noted that in the evening at the Elysee Palace, French President Emmanuel Macron convened the Defense and National Security Council. This happened against the backdrop of the terrorist attack in a shopping center on March 22 in the moscow region.

Crocus City Hall terror attack: what we know

At a concert in the Crocus City Hall shopping center near moscow on Friday, March 22, unknown persons in camouflage opened fire: more than 130 people were killed and a large number of injured. The FSB says it has allegedly detained the suspects.

The Main Intelligence Directorate is convinced that the shooting in the moscow Crocus shopping center was a deliberate provocation by the putin regime, and the Foreign Ministry said that the world should strongly reject russia's false accusations of Ukraine's alleged involvement. The White House also rejected Ukraine's involvement.

The commander of the Ukrainian Volunteer Army, Dmytro Yarosh, also said that the Ukrainian Defense Forces had no involvement in the shooting in the moscow shopping center Crocus.

On March 23, putin made an address on the terrorist attack. According to the russian dictator, Ukraine was "preparing a window" to receive the terrorists who staged the attack in the moscow region.

A representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate, Andriy Yusov, called putin's statement absolutely false and absurd.

After the attack, the head of the United russia faction, Vladimir Vasiliev, said that the state duma would consider and "deeply study" the issue of returning the death penalty.

On the evening of March 23, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenskyy reacted for the first time to the terrorist attack near moscow. According to him, "putin and other scum are just trying to shift the responsibility to someone else."

Analysts from the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) believe that the Islamic State terrorist group was involved in the attack on Crocus City Hall in the moscow region.

The US National Security Council (NSC) on Sunday, March 24, unequivocally rejected russia's attempts to accuse Ukraine of organizing a terrorist attack at the Crocus City Hall shopping center near moscow.
