MOSCOW, March 23 — Armed men burst into the Crocus City Hall near Moscow on Friday, killing at least 93 people and injuring many dozens more in the deadliest attack in Russia since the 2004 Beslan school siege.The men, armed with Kalashnikov automatic weapons, arrived at the Crocus City Hall at around 7:40pm in a minivan. Russian media said there were up to five men.
The men then set fire to the concert hall, pouring a liquid on the curtains and chairs before igniting it. The United States has intelligence confirming Islamic State’s claim of responsibility for a deadly shooting at a concert near Moscow, two US officials said on Friday. Hours before the embassy warning, the Federal Security Service said it had foiled an attack on a Moscow synagogue by Islamic State’s affiliate in Afghanistan, which is known as ISIS-Khorasan or ISIS-K and seeks a caliphate across Afghanistan, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Iran.
