Today is the anniversary of the horrific terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall. 22.03.2024...

This barbaric crime shook the entire world.

In the very first minutes and hours of the tragedy, officials and ordinary people from different countries and corners of the globe expressed their solidarity with our country and our people, showed support. Compassionate people across all continents, as well as Russian compatriots and friends, extended their heartfelt condolences, brought flowers and paid tribute to the victims – adults and children alike left toys and flowers at Russian diplomatic missions abroad.

The world mourned the victims together, as one.

Condolences from abroad continued to pour in for a long time and are still being received to this day.

March 24, 2024, was declared a national day of mourning in Russia. State flags were lowered on the main building of the Russian Foreign Ministry and at Russian diplomatic missions worldwide.

At the Ministry and Russian embassies, condolence books were opened, and Russian diplomats lined up to donate blood for the victims of the attack.

On March 30, 2024, a ceremony was held to lay flowers at the makeshift memorial near Crocus City Hall, attended by members of the diplomatic corps.

Meanwhile, Western media – having lost all sense of morality and decency – cynically exploited the terrorist attack to speculate about interethnic relations in Russia while simultaneously attempting to whitewash the terrorists. We responded with an Anti-Fake, documenting the most outrageous and unethical publications.

Detailed factual information was also provided about the attack and the course of the investigation, along with a summary of terrorist attacks committed in previous years, attacks orchestrated with the involvement of Ukrainian special services, and the role of the Western mainstream media.

Today, a memorial was unveiled at the site of the tragedy in Krasnogorsk – a black granite stele standing opposite the concert hall. It bears the image of white cranes.

The Investigative Committee of Russia has announced that “the investigation of 19 individuals accused of terrorist crimes has been completed. They remain in custody and are currently reviewing case materials.”

Based on the collected evidence, the investigation has concluded that the terrorist attack was planned and orchestrated by the security services of an unfriendly state with the aim of destabilising the situation in Russia. Members of an international terrorist organisation were recruited to carry it out.
