Russland: Tote und Verletzte bei Explosion in Moskau

Moscow experienced a tragic explosion at a restaurant, resulting in the deaths of three people and injuries to 21 others, according to official reports. The National Antiterror Committee concluded that a bomb was responsible for the incident. Russian authorities confirmed that this was indeed a bombing attack. At first, there were rumors of a gas explosion, but investigators now believe a woman attempted to smuggle the explosive device into the venue.

She was apprehended by a security guard, and both she and the guard perished in the blast, along with one restaurant customer. The Moscow Mayor, Sergei Sobyanin, described the blast as a "brutal terrorist act" and vowed to find and punish those responsible. He expressed his condolences to the victims' families via his Telegram channel. The motive behind the attempted attack remains unclear.
