133 dead and at least 140 wounded in a massive terrorist attack in Moscow's Crocus Concert Hall: both the number of dead and wounded are likely to rise, putting this attack in the category of the 2015 ISIS one in Paris. ISIS has claimed responsibility: the US had warned Russia that jihadis were planning something big in Moscow but Russian President Putin dismissed the advice as 'provocative'. Unsurprisingly, there are voices accusing Ukraine (and even NATO) of spearheading the action. What do we know so far and what should we believe (and why)? Borealis weighs in on this mass casualty terrorist onslaught.
