The Crocus Hall terror attack just outside Moscow occurred on March 22, 2024 when four Kyiv regime/NATO-backed and US taxpayer paid terrorists murdered 144 civilians attending a rock concert. At least five children aged 8 to 11 were among those killed. 360 people were injured in the attack.
The attack ranks third in post-Soviet tragedies in terms of number of victims after the Beslan attack and Moscow apartment bombings of 1999, even surpassing the Moscow Theater attack of 2002 casualties.
The attack signaled the end of joint international co-operation between governments and nation states to combat terrorism.
The Russian Investigative Committee implicated Burisma oil and gas conglomerate, of which US globalist alliance leader Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, was appointed to the board of directors, as financing terrorism and assassinations over several years and suspect in financing the Crocus Hall attack.<ref>IS THERE A CIA LINK TO THE CROCUS CITY CENTER TERRORIST ATTACK?, by Larry Johnson, A[r 9, 2024. sonar21.com</ref>

Two weeks before the attack, a Russian nationalist wiki "Traditio" was vandalized by someone going by the name of "Sideswipe9th" or "Zoe Hamilton" said to be living in Belfast, UK, where they warned about the then impending attack while claiming association with the perpetrators.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/WikipediaVandalism/comments/1ba8i09/a_russian_nationalist_wiki_was_affected_by/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/masskillers/comments/1bl9c0f/two_weeks_ago_a_russian_nationalist_wiki_was/</ref>

Hi, I'm Sideswipe9th, aka Zoe Hamilton from Belfast. I convey this warning from a friend who is an anti-Russian fighter that we will soon start attacking Russians with weapons and bombs, as a retaliation for Russian imperialist atrocities in Ukraine.
Russian civilians are considered an integral part of the perpetrators of the war. Therefore, this warning is addressed to all innocent foreigners, such as Ukrainian compatriots who are trapped so that they do not become collateral victims.
The initial plan is to conduct distracting attacks on small concerts, ideally on March 9-10, such as the sobaki.tabaka concert, before moving on to real goals, including the Concert Hall. Tchaikovsky. Concert Hall named after Rachmaninoff, Philharmonic-2 and much more. It will be like Bataclan, with hostage-taking to encourage an end to the unjust war, as well as with the use of chemical devices. Mass shootings of suicide bombers are predicted in large shopping centers such as Riviera, Crocus, Aviapark, Columbus and MEGA Khimki. The scale of the operation may in one way or another resemble Hamas' attack on Israel, except that unlike Hamas savages, we will refrain from inhuman tactics such as rape and beheading.
Glory to Ukraine! Glory to heroes!

The attack
The Crocus City Hall, Russia's largest music concert hall seating some 6,000, is part of a large shopping mall complex located in the suburb of Krasnogorsk on the northwestern outskirts of Moscow. The concert was to feature the band Picnic with a symphony orchestra to perform their new hit Don't Be Afraid of Anything.
Four militants, armed with automatic weapons, entered the building and began to methodically shoot everyone who came in their way. Eyewitnesses said that they had Kalashnikov assault rifles and carbines equipped with sights, apparently collimators, and even flashlights, and small backpacks on their shoulders. Most of the attackers' faces were covered with scarves, but some of the witnesses saw beards sticking out from under them. The terrorists were young men, above average height, up to 180 cm, possibly using false beards and moustaches.
The criminals acted in a coordinated manner, in a military manner, as if such actions were a habitual thing for them.<ref>The Crocus Disaster, ALEKS, Black Mountain Analysis, MAR 25, 2024. bmanalysis.substack.com</ref> According to the security forces, the terrorists had military and airsoft training, using it against civilians and unsuspecting people.
After spilling the liquid they had brought with them, they set fire to the curtain and chairs with incendiary devices. When the fire flared up, rising to the very top and engulfing part of the roof, they, according to preliminary data, left the scene of the massacre. An explosion was heard. About 100 people were trapped inside, who were rescued by the fire department. The roof of the building collapsed. Special Forces of the FSB entered the building.
The operation bore the fingerprints of the CIA-created Ukrainian SBU's (former Ukrainian KGB) Fifth Directorate that was created for the very purpose of staging these types of attacks deep inside Russia to attempt to destabilize Putin’s regime while giving the US plausible deniability.<ref>Terrorist Attack that Killed 143 Russian Civilians in Moscow Yesterday Appears to have been Sponsored by Ukraine, not ISIS-K, DAVID T.

GUR as a branch of CIA
The Washington Post reported that from 2015 on the CIA embarked on an extensive transformation of Ukrainian military intelligence, the GUR. Unlike its American counterpart the DIA, the GUR is not simply an information gathering and analytical organization, but is also engaged in covert activities (or active measures) such as murder, political assassinations, bombings, etc.
With fewer than 5,000 employees, the GUR was a fraction of the size of the SBU and had a narrower focus on espionage and active measures operations against Russia.<ref>Ukrainian spies with deep ties to CIA wage shadow war against Russia, By Greg Miller and Isabelle Khurshudyan, Washington Post, October 23, 2023</ref> It also had a younger workforce with fewer holdovers from Soviet times, while the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) was still perceived as penetrated by Russian intelligence.
The CIA helped the GUR acquire state-of-the-art surveillance and electronic eavesdropping systems, including mobile equipment that could be placed along Russian-controlled lines in eastern Ukraine, but also software tools used to exploit the cellphones of Kremlin officials visiting outside of Moscow. Ukrainian officers operated the systems but everything gleaned was shared with the Americans.
Concerned that the GUR’s aging facilities were likely compromised by Russian intelligence, the CIA paid for new headquarters buildings for the GUR’s "spetsnaz" paramilitary division and a separate directorate responsible for electronic espionage. Troves of data were relayed through the new CIA-built facility back to Washington, where they were scrutinized by CIA and NSA analysts.
The GUR had also developed networks of sources in Russia’s security apparatus. The CIA was permitted to have direct contact with agents recruited and run by Ukrainian intelligence.
The modern-day GUR is a product of the CIA, which shared with its protégés everything that it learned waging the ongoing hybrid war on Syria, not to mention CIA terrorist contacts as well. It was through this meticulous cultivation that GUR chief Kirill Budanov obtained his bloodlust that was on full display in spring 2023 when he declared that “we’ve been killing Russians and we will keep killing Russians anywhere on the face of this world until the complete victory of Ukraine.”<ref>'We will keep killing Russians,' Ukraine's military intelligence chief vows, Michael Weiss and James Rushton, May 5, 2023. news.yahoo.com</ref> For as lethal as the GUR has become over the past decade, it’s still a CIA knockoff, which is why it’s expected to make sloppy mistakes on occasion.
GUR mistakes in the attack
GUR/NATO's first mistake was recruiting people who weren’t ready to fight to the death at the scene of the attack. This led to the culprits being captured and spilling the beans about how they were recruited in exchange for money, whereas ISIS-K fighters always expect to die as “martyrs”.
The second mistake was that the GUR didn’t tell their proxies to flee to a safe house right after the attack to meet a contact that’ll then help them reach the border later on but who’d actually kill them once they meet in order to cover everything up. This led to the terrorists racing towards the Ukrainian border, thus showing everyone that they’d find sanctuary there, which made Russia’s claim of Ukrainian involvement believable for skeptical Westerners.
And third, the last mistake was that the GUR used an outdated news template to claim credit for the attack on behalf of ISIS-K, who they correctly predicted would opportunistically run with it for clout. By doing so, however, they signaled that the group itself didn’t play a role in organizing what happened otherwise their more modern template would have been used instead. Taken together, these three sloppy mistakes discredited the Mainstream Media's narrative and drew attention to the GUR instead.
Zelensky regime shake up

YouTube.</ref> Litvinenko, the head of the Foreign Intelligence Service, was appointed in his place. Ivashchenko, who comes from the GUR, took over as head the SVR instead of Litvinenko.
The US ambassador warned Andrei Yermak that the agreement that allowed Ukrainian elites to move around freely had been nullified by the Moscow terror attacks. These Ukrainians believe that the SBU and GUR intelligence services will be targeted first.
The suspects
11 suspects were apprehended by Akhmat Special Forces, including the four who committed the murders in the auditorium. They attempted to evade a roadblock in Bryansk province, following a car chase and exchange of gunfire with law enforcement officers while heading for the Ukrainian border. A business card in the name of Dmytro Yarosh was found on them.<ref>Ukraine's Neo-Fascist Right Sector Leader Dmytro Yarosh 'Wanted' in Russia, Gianluca Mezzofiore, International Business Times, 03/12/14. ibtimes.co.uk</ref> Yarosh is founder of the Pravy Sektor militia, number 2 on the Ukrainian Security Council, and an advisor to the head of the armed forces. Another nine suspects were arrested later in Tajikistan.
In televised comments to a nation in mourning, President Vladimir Putin put the attack in the context of global terrorism saying it was a kind of 'demonstrative execution'. President Putin said "There is information about the preparation of an escape window for the murderers on the Ukrainian side"
Moscow authorities reported several were citizens of the Central Asian republic of Tajikistan. Using Muslim (Tajikistan) people to kill scores of Russians and then flee to Ukraine is a classic MI6 scheme (UK) used for centuries to sow discord between usually brotherly people. The Russians would now be expected to hate all immigrants from the Central Asian “Stans” and even more hatred against Ukrainians.

Another 500,000 was to be paid later after the attack.
RIA Novosti reported a video released showing one of the arrested terrorists, “The suspect gave his name, which sounds similar to Fariddun Shamsutdin, as well as his date of birth - 17 September 1998...He had arrived from Turkey on 4 March [2024]...The detainee said that his handlers contacted him a month ago via Telegram and provided him with weapons...He was given the task of killing all the people in the hall and was offered about a million rubles for this...The defendant added that he committed the crime after a conversation with the preacher’s assistant". A second video showed another captured terrorist also confessing he received orders via the Telegram messaging service.
In March 2022, the recruitment of mercenaries by the Ukrainian embassies in Tajikistan and other countries were reported. Calls to join the "resistance to Russia" and join the ranks of the Ukrainian "International Legion" were openly published on the websites of the Ukrainian diplomatic department.<ref>Zelensky says 16,000 foreigners have volunteered to fight for Ukraine against Russian invasion, By Timothy Bella and Annabelle Timsit, Washington Post, March 3, 2022. </ref>

Investigation
The Main Investigation Department of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation (SLEDCOM) discovered significant amounts of money and cryptocurrency from Ukraine to the perpetrators of the terrorist attack, which were used in the preparation of the crime.<ref>The Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia heard the progress of the investigation of the criminal case on the terrorist attack in Krasnogorsk, March 28, 2024. sledcom.ru</ref>
The Investigative Committee conducted an inspection on the appeal of a group of deputies of the Russian State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation and other persons about the financing of terrorist activities by top officials of the United States and NATO countries. Based on its results, a criminal case was initiated on the grounds of a crime under Part 4 of Article 205.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (financing of terrorism).
On 18 April 2014, Hunter Biden, the son of then-Vice President Joe Biden, who managed US-Ukraine relations for the Obama administration, was appointed to the board of Burisma Holdings. In February 2016, Cofer Black, the Director of the CIA's Counterterrorist Center (CTC) (1999-2002) in the George W. Bush administration and Ambassador at Large for counter-terrorism (2002-2004) joined Burisma's board of directors.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
The same year Cofer Black was hired on the board of a Latvian Bank.<ref>Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of Baltic International Bank Held, Baltic International Bank. Published: 2016-10-11 13:39:26 CEST. https://view.news.eu.nasdaq.com</ref> In an interview with DELFI, a business magazine, Cofer claimed expertise in terrorist financing: "What does counterterrorism have in common with banking? How much time do you have? Actually [they are] shockingly similar. I spent the last 12 years of my time [at the CIA] in counterterrorism, but before that I worked in other fields [of intelligence]. An important thing in counterterrorism is what we now call financial counterterrorism. At the beginning of my career, there was little if any combating of terrorism in the financial area."<ref>Former head of US counterterrorism: a degraded society is a greater threat for Latvia than a military attack, Delpfi Business, December 20, 2016. www.bib.eu</ref> . By 2018 Cofer's work at the bank was apparent: the bank was fined by regulators: Template:Quotebox-float
Prosecutor General of Ukraine Viktor Shokin initiated a corruption investigation against Burisma Holdings in 2016, but Sholin was dismissed due to Jor Biden’s pressure on then-President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko. Shokin had evidence of money laundering by Burisma Holdings, and Biden threatened to delay sending $1 billion in aid to Ukraine.<ref>Biden Reportedly ‘Bragged’ About the Firing of a Prosecutor Who Was Investigating His Son’s Firm, by Colin Kalmbacher, April 2nd, 2019. https://lawandcrime.com</ref>
It was established that the funds received through commercial organizations, in particular, the oil and gas company Burisma Holdings, operating on the territory of Ukraine, have been used in recent years to carry out terrorist acts in the Russian Federation, as well as abroad, in order to eliminate prominent political and public figures and cause economic damage.
The investigation, in cooperation with other special services and financial intelligence, is checking the sources of income and further movement of funds in the amount of several million US dollars, the involvement of specific persons from among the employees of the authorities, public and commercial organizations of Western countries.
In addition, the links between the direct perpetrators of terrorist acts and foreign curators, organizers and sponsors were being investigated and operationalized.<ref>https://t.me/sledcom_press/12642</ref>
Reaction
Sunday March 24, 2024 was declared a national day of mourning. On the evening before, President Putin addressed the nation in a nationally televised broadcast vowing, ""All perpetrators, organizers and customers of this crime will suffer fair and inevitable punishment. Whoever they are, whoever guides them. I repeat, we will identify and punish everyone who stands behind the terrorists, who prepared this atrocity, this attack on Russia, on our people."<ref>Putin Vows Revenge For "Bloodbath" Moscow Attack, Points Finger At Help From Ukraine, As 11 'Terrorists' Captured, MAR 23, 2024. zerohedge.com</ref>
The head of RT Margarita Simonyan commented: "It immediately becomes obvious why American media shouted in unison that it was ISIS...Because this is not ISIS...It’s just that the actors were selected in such a way that they could convince the stupid part of the global community that it was ISIS...And the fact that even before the arrests, even before the names of the perpetrators were found, Western intelligence services began to convince the world that it was ISIS - that's what gave them away”.<ref>Russian state news agency confirms Ukrainian involvement, Times Of India, Mar 23, 2024. YouTube.</ref>
When asked if the United States, Britain and Ukraine could be behind the terrorist attack, Director Alexander Bortnikov of the Federal Security Service (FSB) domestic counterintelligence agency replied: "We think that this is so...In any case, we are now talking about the information that we have...the investigators also have concrete results".<ref>FULL INTERVIEW WITH FSB DIRECTOR ALEXANDER BORTNIKOV ABOUT UKRAINE/ISIS AND THE TERROR ATTACKS, March 26, 2024.</ref><ref>Yesterday’s remarkable statements to journalists by Alexander Bortnikov, director of Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB), Gilbert Doctorow, March 27, 2024. gilbertdoctorow.com</ref>
Since January 2024 some 100,000 Russian citizens volunteered for the armed services. In the first 10 days after the Crocus Hall terror attack, 16,000 signed up. Many said they wanted to avenge the deaths of those murdered in the Crocus Hall attack.
On March 3, 2024 during remarks at the congress of the Federation of Independent Trade Unions of Russia President Putin said: "There is every reason to believe that the main goal of the perpetrators of the terrorist attack in Crocus City Hall was to cause harm to our unity...We have a country that is a unique example of inter-confessional harmony and unity, inter-religious unity, inter-ethnic unity...Everyone understands the conditions we live in...The country is forced to defend its interests, its people, its future, its sovereignty by force."
