Russia knows who carried out the Crocus City Hall attack but is now investigating who gave the order, President Vladimir Putin said on Monday, pointing to Ukraine as being a possible culprit.

“This attack was carried out by radical Islamists,” Putin said in the opening remarks of a video call with law enforcement officials.

The US and its allies are now trying to cover for their proxies in Kiev, insisting that Ukraine had nothing to do with the terrorist attack and that the party responsible was Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS), the Russian president noted.

“But we know who carried out the attack. We want to know who ordered it.”

Russian security services detained seven alleged perpetrators, who were driving towards Ukraine, as well as four of their suspected accomplices. The men were identified as ethnic Tajiks.

Putin noted that the fact the terrorists were headed for Ukraine posed questions that needed answering.

“Who was waiting for them there? It is clear that those who support the Kiev regime do not want to be accomplices and sponsors of terrorism. But a lot of questions remain,” he said.

Die ISIS-K Aktivitäten haben in Tadschikistan seit der Machtübernahme der Taliban fortwährend zugenommen. Die Taliban haben ISIS-K in Afghanistan recht gut bekämpft, entsprechend ist man nach Norden ausgewichen. Das wird Russland in den folgenden Jahren noch ordentlich und wachsende Probleme machen.
