"Minimum from February 15": Budanov stated that Russia knew about the preparation of a terrorist attack in "Crocus"

The Kremlin Tower and the ability to eliminate several high -ranking officials is one of the likely scenarios of preparing shootings in the Crocus City Hall concert hall. Russia has known at least from February 15 that a terrorist attack would take place in the Crocus City Hall concert hall. This was stated by the head of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Kirill Budanov, the press service of the department reports.

This information, according to him, was through the intelligence of the group in Syria. Subsequently, the details were learned in Moscow. "And do not tell tales that it is strangely materialized from nowhere," said Kirill Budanov. The head of the department said that Russia knew where the fighting groups would come from. They moved to the territory of the aggressor state through the other two countries.

The fight "towers" and the ability to eliminate several high -ranking officials is one of the probable scenarios. Also, according to GUR, one cannot exclude that the Russian Federation has actually underestimated the extent of what will happen. "They thought it would be more locally and wanted to blame Ukraine," the head of the department added. The Kremlin has changed versions of the events in Krocus three times.

The Russian top, according to the report, tried to involve the so -called "Ukrainian mark" in the terrorist attack. In the city of Krasnogorsk, located in the territory of the Moscow region, shots were fired at the Crocus City Hall concert hall on March 22 on the eve of Piknik's performance. Groups of people with small arms shot visitors. The attack on March 22 could die more than a hundred people, and a huge number of injuries were injured.

In the Center for Public Relations of the FSB, on March 23, they stated that the persons who participated in the terrorist attack in City City Holi decided to leave the place of the terrorist attack quickly and escape to the territory of Ukraine. According to the FSB, these actions were carefully prepared. The Russian Federation was rejected by the Russian Federation about the "Ukrainian trail" in the shooting in "Crocus".
