US Embassy warns Russia of 'mass-casualty event' threat at historic Moscow palace

The US Embassy in Moscow has issued a warning of a potential mass-casualty incident at the Tsaritsyno Museum Reserve, a historic palace complex in southern Moscow. The embassy has urged US citizens to avoid the site and surrounding areas on October 31, 2026, citing a credible threat identified by Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB).

The FSB stated that they have received information from the US through established channels about a possible terrorist plot in Moscow, and relevant security work is already underway. This warning comes amid a history of US warnings to Russia about potential terrorist attacks, most recently in March 2024 when the US shared intelligence about a possible attack in Moscow before the ISIS-K attack on the Crocus City Hall concert venue.
