"Murderers, You Bombed It to Smithereens"

“Murderers, You Bombed It to Smithereens”

Of course, as a true masochist, I went to Palace Square to look at those hearts, small and large, supposedly symbolizing the sister cities of Petersburg and Mariupol. It is clear whose heart is the small one, and whose the big one, in the imperial capital. My thoughts about this are unprintable, so I’ll omit them. But I went for curiosity’s sake: how many people would be getting their pictures…

NYT: "Usa hanno nascosto info alla Russia su attacco a Mosca. Cremlino: "Cautela".

I servizi segreti americani non hanno trasmesso ai loro colleghi russi tutte le informazioni in loro possesso sulla minaccia di un attacco terroristico al Crocus City Hall, per paura di rivelare le loro fonti. Lo scrive il New York Times citando funzionari dei servizi di sicurezza europei e americani. “Le relazioni ostili tra Mosca e Washington hanno impedito ai funzionari americani di…

FSB chief Alexander Bortnikov dropped a bombshell on March 26, accusing the U.S., Britain, and Ukraine of orchestrating the horrific March 22 concert hall attack in Krasnogorsk, near Moscow, that left 144 dead and 360 injured.

[mariacallous]

The terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall was one of the deadliest in Russian history, and although Russia had been warned about it by multiple Western intelligence agencies — as well as by the intelligence services of Tajikistan — the FSB not only failed to prevent it, but also failed to take any increased security measures in Moscow. Instead, in the days before March 22, Vladimir Putin personally labeled the warnings as “blackmail.” All the while, since 2006 Russia has had a special body for countering terrorism — the so-called National Antiterrorism Committee (NAC), headed by FSB Director Alexander Bortnikov and boasting a membership that includes key security officials like Interior Minister Vladimir Kolokoltsev and Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu. The NAC's powers are virtually unlimited, and its activities seem to have been intense — 25 conferences, forums, roundtables and other events were held under the auspices of the NAC last year alone. Except the topics of these events were not ISIS terrorists, as one would expect, but opposition activists, Ukrainians, and LGBT people.

Russian Counterterrorism Operation: Russia has declared a counterterrorism operation in Kursk, Belgorod, and Bryansk oblasts in response to the Ukrainian incursion. FSB Leadership: The Federal Security Service (FSB) is leading the counterterrorism operation, with FSB Head Alexander Bortnikov in charge. Ukrainian Incursion: Ukrainian forces have made advances in Kursk Oblast, with geolocated footage showing them maintaining positions in several areas. Russian Defense: Russian forces, including conscripts and elements of the Northern Grouping of Forces, are defending against the Ukrainian incursion. Casualties: There are reports of casualties among Russian conscripts, which could lead to a political crisis for the Kremlin. Russian Response: The Russian military is redeploying units from other areas to defend against the Ukrainian incursion, including elements of the 810th Naval Infantry Brigade. Ukrainian Advances: Ukrainian forces have advanced slightly further than their previously confirmed positions, with geolocated footage showing them operating in several areas. Russian Strikes: Russia claims to have conducted a successful IskanderM ballistic missile strike against Ukrainian forces in Kursk Oblast. Kremlin Concerns: The Kremlin is concerned about the potential political fallout from the Ukrainian incursion and the involvement of Russian conscripts in the defense. International Implications: The situation has international implications, with the potential to escalate the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.     Kyiv Admits Incursion into Kursk Region In a significant development, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has acknowledged that Ukrainian forces are engaged in combat within Russia's Kursk region. The ongoing incursion, which has entered its sixth day, has been described by Zelenskyy as a demonstration of Ukraine's capability to "restore justice and apply necessary pressure on the aggressor." As battles intensify, Russia has implemented a stringent security regime across three of its border regions. Concurrently, Belarus, a close ally of Moscow, has dispatched additional troops to its border with Ukraine, alleging that Kyiv has violated Belarusian airspace. Belarus Responds to Ukrainian Incursion Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko announced that Belarusian air defense units destroyed numerous aerial targets originating from Ukraine over the Mogilev region on Friday evening. In response to the alleged airspace violations, Belarus has reinforced its border troops, accusing Ukrainian drones of entering its airspace during the ongoing military incursion into Russia's Kursk region. Lukashenko warned that any provocations from Ukraine would be met with a strong response, echoing the sentiments of Belarusian Defense Minister Viktor Khrenin, who termed the airspace violations as provocations warranting retaliatory action. The Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has also issued statements on social media, hinting at a potential reevaluation of the necessity of maintaining a Ukrainian diplomatic presence in Minsk. Russia Promises 'Tough Response' to Ukrainian Border Attacks Maria Zakharova, spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, vowed a swift and severe military response to Ukraine's actions along the border. This statement came shortly after officials in the Russian city of Kursk reported that 13 people were injured when debris from a Ukrainian missile struck a residential building. Russian Forces Disrupt Ukrainian Operations Near Dnipro Russian military officials claimed they have thwarted Ukrainian attempts to regroup in the Dnipro River area, part of the Kherson region. Roman Kodryan, head of the Russian battlegroup in the region, stated that Russian forces maintained control over the islands

along the Dnipro River, preventing Ukrainian troops from consolidating their positions and destroying enemy watercraft attempting to land on the eastern bank. Ukraine's Offensive in Kursk: A Bold Move Ukraine's surprise offensive in the Kursk region has been the most significant crossborder action since Russia's fullscale invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022. On Saturday night, President Zelenskyy acknowledged the operation, framing it as part of Ukraine's broader strategy to restore justice. In response, Russia's Ministry of Defence has begun deploying additional troops and munitions to the border area, anticipating a potential counteroffensive. Russian President Vladimir Putin condemned the incursion as a "largescale provocation," and the military's chief of staff, Valery Gerasimov, vowed to quash the Ukrainian forces involved. In reaction to the incursion, Russian authorities declared a "federallevel" state of emergency in Kursk, and Ukraine initiated the evacuation of 20,000 residents from its Sumy region, which borders Kursk. Ukraine Captures Dozens of Russian Soldiers in Kursk Operation   The Ukrainian forces have reportedly captured dozens of Russian soldiers during a surprise operation in Russia's Kursk region. This marks the most substantial crossborder incursion by Ukraine since the war began in February 2022.   Ukraine Claims Success Against Russian Drone Attacks Ukraine's air force reported the destruction of 53 out of 57 drones launched by Russia in an overnight airstrike, with the drones being intercepted in various parts of Ukraine. The Ukrainian President also alleged that a North Korean missile was used by Russian forces in the Kyiv region during the overnight strike, describing the attack as yet another act of terrorism against Ukraine. Casualties and Damage in Kyiv Tragically, a fouryearold boy and his 35yearold father were killed when debris from a downed Russian weapon struck their home near Kyiv. The Ukrainian emergency services reported that a 13yearold child was among the injured in the Brovary district, just northeast of Kyiv. Ukrainian officials have blamed drone debris for the casualties, though it remains unclear whether a missile or a dron

FSB chief Bortnikov reported on investigation progress of Crocus terrorist attack

Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) chief Alexander Bortnikov said that the perpetrators of the terrorist attack in Crocus wanted to damage relations in Europe.

At a meeting of the Council of Heads of Security Bodies and Special Services of the States, FSB chief Alexander Bortnikov reported the latest data on the investigation of the terrorist attack in the Crocus City Hall concert hall that took place on March 22. In particular, he named the coordinators, the total number of detainees, as well as one of the targets of the orderers of the terrorist attack.

Bortnikov said that police detained more than 20 people. He also added:

We are currently establishing the full circle of those involved in the atrocity. More than 20 persons have already been detained, including the direct perpetrators and accomplices.

The FSB chief said, two of the four participants in the attack arrived in Russia from Turkey shortly before the attack. One of the detainees admitted that he flew from there on March 4 and that he was offered half a million rubles for killing people.

Another defendant, Faridun Shamsiddin, published photos from Istanbul on social media in February. The eight photos bear the same date – February 23, almost all of them have geolocation: “Aksaray, Istanbul”. They include a photo of Shamsiddin himself, as well as shots at the Fatih Mosque.

Fsb, 'Kiev addestra islamisti in Medio Oriente'

Alexander Bortnikov, il capo dei servizi d’intelligence interni russi, ha accusato l’Ucraina di addestrare miliziani islamisti in Medio Oriente. Secondo Bortnikov, citato dalla Tass, ciò è evidenziato dal gran numero di stranieri che combattono con le forze di Kiev. “Sono nazionalisti, mercenari, islamisti che il Paese porta a combattere contro la Russia”, ha aggiunto il capo dell’Fsb, senza fare…

Federal Security Service Director Alexander Bortnikov claimed during a visit to Bishkek on Friday that his agency has proof that “Ukraine’s military intelligence is directly related” to the Moscow concert hall terrorist attack on March 22. 

Bortnikov told a meeting of the Council of Heads of Security Agencies and Special Services of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) that FSB investigators have established that attack plans, financing, and escape logistics were coordinated online by members of the Islamic State – Khorasan Province terrorist group. Bortnikov added that the FSB believes one of the terrorists’ goals was to damage Moscow’s relationship with other CIS members “by using religious and ethnic factors.” The FSB director said his agency is coordinating its work with counterparts in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan.

Within days of the terrorist attack at the Crocus City Hall music venue on March 22, 2024, Russian senior officials began asserting — without evidence — that the perpetrators acted on orders from the Ukrainian government. Police have arrested more than 20 suspects in their investigation, including the four Tajikistani nationals who apparently carried out the attack. Videos have circulated online showing federal agents torturing the men after their capture. A nationwide crackdown on Central Asian migrants has followed in the terrorist attack’s wake.
