Föderation EN Fr 22.03.2024 20:49:43 The #Kremlin has yet to comment on the attack. But a speech by #Putin to #Russia’s domestic #intelligence agency, the #FSB, on Tues now looms large. He had dismissed the #UnitedStates #Embassy’s earlier #SecurityAlert about a possible #TerroristAttack in #Moscow as “obvious blackmail.” He had also claimed, w/o evidence, that #Ukraine was seeking to carry out attacks inside Russia “in places where people gather in large numbers.” |

Föderation EN Fr 22.03.2024 20:59:02 Again a reminder that #Russia controls all reported information, so be wary of #disinformation. Recall that the 1999 attacks on #Moscow residential apartment buildings were how Putin came to power, it’s been a long held belief that #Putin & #FSB were behind the attacks to create a mass mobilization behind Putin who just a month prior was unknown. #Shooting #Explosion #Russia #CrocusCityHall |
