Tehran contacted Moscow to tell that a terrorist attack would take place in Russia a few days before people at Crocus City Hall were killed.
That’s according to Reuters, citing three sources.
“Days before the attack in Russia, Tehran shared information with Moscow about a possible big terrorist attack inside Russia that was acquired during interrogations of those arrested in connection with deadly bombings in Iran,” one of the sources told Reuters.
Iran obtained such information from those ISIS-K members arrested and interrogated in January for twin bombings on in the city of Kerman that killed nearly 100 people on January 3, 2024.
This once again proves Ukraine cannot be linked to the terrorist attack, but continues a discussion why Russia ignored intel provided by its ally and decided not to apply appropriate security measures.
Even earlier, the US issued a warning about a terrorist threat in Russia. However, Russia later accused the US, the UK and Ukraine of being behind the attack on the concert hall near Moscow.
