Canada echoes U.S. ‘mass casualty event’ warning for Moscow

The U.S. Embassy in Moscow has issued a warning about a "credible" threat of a "mass casualty event" at the Tsaritsyno Museum Reserve in Moscow. The Canadian government, Global Affairs Canada, echoed this warning, advising against all travel to Russia due to the ongoing conflict with Ukraine and the risk of terrorism. Canadians in Russia are advised to consider leaving the country and maintain a low profile if they remain there.

Attacks are primarily occurring near the Russian-Ukrainian border, in Bryansk, Kursk, Belgorod oblasts, and the Black Sea region including Rostov Oblast and Krasnodar Krai. The Canadian government also reported that government buildings, schools, cultural venues, places of worship, airports, and tourist attractions have been targeted by terrorist activity.

Evacuees from Russia-occupied Oleshky have been crossing into Ukrainian-held territory as part of a major rescue operation under a ceasefire in the southern Kherson region.
