A Deadly Attack on Concert Venue Near Moscow Claims Dozens of Lives
ISIS has claimed responsibility for a devastating attack on a concert venue complex near Moscow, leaving at least 60 people dead and over 100 wounded. The shocking incident unfolded as armed individuals stormed the venue, setting fires and causing the roof to partially collapse.
The attack occurred just before the popular music group Picnic was set to perform, sending panic and chaos through the crowd. More than 70 ambulance teams rushed to the scene to assist victims, with 145 people hospitalized and 60 in serious condition.
In the aftermath of the tragedy, Moscow Mayor announced the cancellation of all public events in the city as a precaution. The US embassy had previously warned of potential attacks on Moscow gatherings earlier this month, raising concerns about security in the region.
