According to three informed sources, Iran alerted Russia about a significant "terrorist operation" potentially targeting its territory prior to the tragic concert hall massacre near Moscow last month. The deadly attack, deemed the deadliest within Russia in two decades, saw gunmen unleash a hail of automatic gunfire upon concert attendees at Crocus City Hall on March 22, resulting in the loss of at least 144 lives. The Islamic State militant group claimed responsibility for the violence.

The final toll from the Moscow concert hall attack could exceed the confirmed 143 mark, as over 100 missing persons reports are received by Russian investigators. The attack, the deadliest in two decades, saw gunmen storm the venue, shooting civilians before setting the building ablaze. ISIS claimed responsibility, but Russian President Putin baselessly accused Ukraine, sparking international controversy.

Reports are coming that the attackers behind the Moscow concert hall attack, which claimed 143 lives, briefly travelled to Turkey to renew their Russian residence permits. However, radicalization did not occur there. Russian President Putin refrains from directly attributing the attack to ISIS, instead suggesting a connection to Ukraine, a claim Kyiv denies.

Russia Vetoes UN Resolution , to Prevent Nukes in Space.
The resolution was sponsored
by Japan and the United States.
It called on all nations to refrain from developing or deploying nuclear weapons "or other weapons of mass destruction in space," 'The Guardian' reports. .
A 1967 international treaty
already bans such weapons in space.
Russia’s U.N. Ambassador, Vassily Nebenzia,
vetoed the resolution, calling it "absolutely absurd and politicized," as well as a "dirty spectacle.".
China abstained from voting, while the rest of the 15-member council voted in favor of the resolution. .
Today’s veto begs the question:
Why? Why, if you are following the
rules, would you not support a
resolution that reaffirms them?
What could you possibly be hiding, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, U.S. ambassador to the U.N., via 'The Guardian'.
Russia and China would rather establish an
amendment calling on all nations "to prevent for
all time the placement of weapons in outer space, and the threat of use of force in outer spaces.".
We want a ban on the placement of
weapons of any kind in outer space, not
just WMDs [weapons of mass destruction].
But you don’t want that. And let me ask
you that very same question. Why?, Vassily Nebenzia, Russia’s U.N. ambassador, via 'The Guardian'.
Nebenzia went on to say, "if we recall that the U.S. and their allies announced some time ago plans to place weapons … in outer space.".
The U.S.-Japan resolution was announced in March after it was determined that Russia was in possession of "a 'troubling' anti-satellite weapon capability," 'The Guardian' reports.
However, earlier this year, Putin said, , "Our position is clear and transparent: We have always been categorically against and are now against the deployment of nuclear weapons in space."

doesn’t just happen by magic, Senate Majority Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, via statement

Media reports citing Russia's investigative committee suggest that evidence points to Ukrainian nationalists orchestrating the attack on the Moscow concert hall. Allegedly, the perpetrators were funded through cryptocurrency payments originating from Ukraine. Additionally, Russian authorities disclosed on Friday (March 29) that three individuals had been detained for allegedly plotting another attack in the southern region of the country. This incident is distinct from the earlier assault on Crocus City Hall in suburban Krasnogorsk, which resulted in the tragic loss of nearly 144 lives. The concert hall was situated approximately 12 miles west of the Kremlin.

The 30,000 residents of
the nearby community of
Pripyat were evacuated the next day.
The Soviet government
attempted a cover-up.
But two days after the disaster, radiation levels
800 miles away in Sweden were detected at
40% higher than the normal level.
32 people were initially
killed in the Chernobyl plant.
5,000 Soviets eventually died
from radiation-induced illnesses.
Millions of acres of forest
and farmland across Northern
and Eastern Europe were contaminated.
