the best of part of the the hills in cold clouds terraces try send a package concert, who in the russian capital, anything at least 60 attached encouraging 3 children. i'm more than 100 wound up the . the buildings were, has collapsed with the top to a complaint made fun towels. emergency services, all walk in the state and federal court summons activities could fill the contracts inside. wives of condemnation of the massacre come in from all around the world

with the ages of different nations expressing schultz and sadness of the tragic and as washington points to isis unassisted, there's no sign of praying in bozeman. moscow says there unless the u. s. has relied for information and really has no say in the hello from west coast. just go not 9 am here this saturday, the 23rd of march, and it has been a full night of tragedy in the russian capital. well, let's just look through to a terrorist going to attack most as the biggest concern, who has left it in east 60 people that including 3 children. i'm more than 100 wounded. now this is one according to the regions health ministry. unconfirmed reports coming in suggests that that death co made ready have risen to 80 to

a 5. it was also started out of a new bind. the assailants has now been put out, is all some of the horrifying pictures to, from the attack in the off to us. but i think no need no, no come entry. a warning, you may find some of the images to stop and the, the,

this is the the in the meantime be russian investigative committee representative. she's commented on the attack and as outlined, the ongoing investigation or the was the last within the framework because this criminal case, a set of investigative actions, is currently being carried out. also ortiz from the investigative committee

together with the federal security service, the interior ministry, a currently examining the victims bodies. unfortunately, we must say that the death toll from this terrorist attack is increasing. investigators of will say seized weapons and ammunition from the crime scene. there is a currently being examined genetic fingerprint, i'm ballistic inspections of the weapons, ammunition and other evidence of being conducted. cctv video has been collected and is being studied by specialists. this is all the information we have so far or joining us live now. so i'll to correspond to make it to show um, well, i mean we can see the high interior just a little bit of 2 ambulances. we can save the smoldering remains of the moon as well. um, what if you hi. 9 this morning, one of the latest developments, you know, when it comes to the situation here, uh,

477 people plus 183 pieces of equipment where use that involved to help extinguish the fire. firefighters has been working all night, but the aftermath of the fire is indeed the top floors of the of the whole had been completely destroyed. now, while the emergency services have also been using d minus robots in case the explosives inside the home, but the best sol as it stands right now is at 60 people that at 100 people one did . but it is expected to rise according to reports. the investigation is ongoing. investigators are still on the scene and the they are doing their best. i mean, we still don't know what the motives behind the attacks were. so just to remind you a little bit, this is a very big call. i mean,

it's kinda host up to 6000 people here. and apparently yesterday old, those 6000 seats were sold out. so, and it was also a friday night. so, you know, people are going out to uh, to have fun on the weekend and open up the weekend, but unfortunately it ended in tragedy now uh at 10 a 10 am. so in around an hour, we are also expected to hear a list of the names of the victims that were killed in the tragedy last night. i do also want to ask you, i mean, we obviously know the situation on the ground like you've just described twice of this to be. the details are still coming tonight as the investigation continues. like you said, it was a friday night 8 pm to for when literally, as i understand it, just sitting down for the concept of that, well, we're of the service era to stop. how is it as an on falls from that moment?

can you just read tacit for the no, apparently at arms people, certain armed people came and started shooting from outside the whole breaking a glass doors and killing security stuff. then they got to the people in the hall and just started shooting everywhere. we also heard from a someone and an eye witness that was actually inside. while the attack was happening, let's take a listen. they were standing by the exit. we were heading towards the source. some of them ran back here and started shooting at people. i fell down on the floor and tried to play dead, and the girl next to me was killed. then the fire broke out. they closed the door. i guess they couldn't look it up. i was lying under the door, just breathing. i had no energy left in me some time past 3 or 4 minutes,

maybe i crawled out, looked around and went to the exit. i saw that no one was that. so i went outside no panic started right after that and people are running everywhere. it's wind too high, so 100 people where ended up being stuck in the basement each later on. they were helped by the emergency services. but some people also chose to play dead because it was quite dangerous flame that to stay alive lipstick, listen to the i was on the balcony. those we didn't think it was shots, just the audience greeting the musicians. at 1st we didn't think much of it, but then it became clear that something scary was going on. suddenly someone shouted that there was shooting and we had to evacuate. we ran right down towards the stage. at some point everyone stopped. everyone just lay down on the stage. was trying to scramble behind the speaker because i saw a person with some kind of firearm. we ran behind the curtain and one of the lobby

staff was already standing there. he said, run is now here and those statements is quite horrifying. it's all full. i mean, what do you do in such a situation? do you run, do you high, or do you just play dead like certain people that to save your life and the, you know, the right now law school. and i suppose all of russia are in morning, but the russian authorities still continue to do their best to continue their mission here. while we appreciate you giving us the very latest on on this, we'll join you a bit later on as like i said, those details start to tear up. was that also correspondence for me? it's john not far from protest. city winds national size and security on this mock us about a says that this was katie, a well time to tack, calculated to pull is maximum carnage is undoubtedly

a active terrorism. what's more, it is a military or military style active tear and is this was organized. this was plan um, the gunmen are heavily armed with assault rifles. uh, according some reports, body armor. uh and throwing grenades. they obviously had some type of explosive device or accelerate. there would have been very light rent a cop type of security at the entrance and some incredibly soft target. they opened fire from the reports. i point blank range on anyone who came within view. so their goal was to kill as many russians as possible. i a one, a special image, all the candle has been shown on billboards throughout russian memory of the victims. the sign which has the wide grief. and so we're like on the date of the, of trustees as being seen in the cities of one hour. notice of this kind of

a start kind of a sort of piece about the one up a. so really, across this fost territory, when our joint live, my son and historian that compelled to ma, thank you very much for your time this morning. i mean, the 1st thing i want to ask you, i mean, we haven't seen terrorism. so asked me of this scale in russia for many, many years. and i think for many russians that will, of course, bring back the early 2 thousands as those chechen rules were ongoing. i mean, is it shocking to say such a large a ton of terrorist tactics to the straits of the capitol? first of all, please express. i expect i was wondering vince, in this i don't believe to the people of a private instead or by the already expressed just in dives about the due date on

this issue. this is not just victim x, please don't go to the minute. it is broken down is up and distributed them i did. you wired mister? i guess it is not that they are just cross voiding direct. you. these are the people. what get is the big i did buy that any the job you'd be a yay or be it'd be great because i don't know what good that everybody got and you blame, but branding and did a generic do with these is 2000, but be this is all the, you know, they don't go to be honest with automobiles at all. but the deb sleeping agents in different cities who at that vehicle and it is brought here that gives the bad the coverage and all, all the numbers you do that because the winters the american comes in give a treat. you play the know that i'll give you a leave just this is

a part of the problem. and i believe that i shouldn't be blue that i shouldn't, bowman, that is imposes. and you didn't give him to, didn't get applied to these be. i want to all to, i mean we've all the same thing speaking to guests and that's but slight yourself over the last well, 1212 hours now it's interesting, but a lot of them say that this was a political attack that it could be linked to ukraine like you seem to suggest, and not the one quoted at the us embassy warning, most go of a potential terrorist attack, was quite an omen us warning. do you think that there is a political threats to this attack? zip, this is the standard, the ready conduct. pick and the back of the black. they know that the die and what other model mean? yeah, just modeling that internet is possible if they have been let me go back back from

the garbage. and then the flooding near me, just one line, the is the problem with the tactics to give benefits. obviously i don't buy that somebody can think. then bear in mind that i should and by the jews. yeah, i'll do destroyed. i just gotta bring up the destroyer, drop, and didn't bother to go for the. but if there's a book i've searched duty, you see i have my cell be do the ball. i've done myself by subbing the ball. what did i replace or did? and to give you those in citizens to be a good ribbon, what is going on and visit them? what did, what did you guys enjoy the big still be? they're all done with or database dove. and i just wondered what the americans are only does that mean that that'd be rich with detritus group. they're not what brought the miss dee jones though?

they do that exact, but it does anybody you know or did it did an item with these data is the that the us we had did condemn the attack, but they in the same breath said, by the way, ukraine is not responsible. i mean, it seems like a strange response. you would think that even in dock times of incredibly strange toys when there is the fact of going on between west and russia. that even here with the death of what we believe to be may be from 8 to plus people. that's still defending ukraine. i mean it's, it just seems a lot of humanity or most are not respond. you see, that is why i'm saying that all this was 3 blacks. the deck is coming. they knew

what do indeed seem to be a scheme. they've all any major to become that somebody listed when you're going to see how they're, what, let me tell you. i've studied the means, as i've said, they never have such things are happening and they, what is going on, the pentagon? the vegetables is the machine. did all the form is supreme, you know more dave, committee of that. we are the decide. the problem in the doors and variable is there design. i'll go to very bad actions of the money. this is a part of his days, but it wouldn't be a box that you blame because the one at the might that other countries, you know, in defense. so to be the republican, rebuilding the market which see i'm going to be leaving, this was that you have lost them and you do that, you know that back. oh, good. all you believe is, will do that. and if you know that, you know that, that, that means there's what i'll be, i'm that what it, that you're going to be

a i don't buy this thing from the oh, oh we know, i mean, you mentioned that you, yourself have done your shopping and not move, which means that you've been to russia, which means that you've spoken to russians, which means that you understand a little bit, at least about the russian spirit about the russian people. i, one of the, obviously attacks like this seems to be about subbing fear. i mean, stability about on to mining the political need to ship, but knowing rush of the way but, and do these things. but that goal would be achieved in this nation. the way i see that a mean this is the day of on don't defend booting a bit more don't let kids domains in. right. yeah. now how do i show that these they make and when they see that the waterfront, not feeling the,

the weird disturbance in the shop. and i hope that it shouldn't be but a lot of strong and by using up to the standard is good. this brought instead to be i can be a me that your very strongly invite the know these and be to ship forces and i know the direction there's none of them is very strong. they are undermining notion missed. that is a bit undermining that i shouldn't be able to what they want to maybe give step in the big this but it's such an out of plan would be such and out of the tax. i know that i shouldn't be able to start to give up and fight demo advice demo very strongly. i don't, can i also get your take on, on the timing because this shooting officer comes right off to rushes presidential election. while we still very clearly the uh,

brought him appear to was elected of the 87 percent of the boat was 5th tom of head of state. so the timing is the something to read and that definitely definitely the sure the bottom by g got go. you got to that is what we're trying to use. yeah, i want it on my you can do it. x ends up being headed in my country and you don't see your buddy games do big dog over the and the she's done. all that kind is the mighty guy came in the that was the myrtle. it seems that instead of it was a bite or because and i mean the to the because to minute bear with me over the humanity. but the, we're dividing us as being this getting out of the seniors about it. know, so this is definitely the routine dial uh to fix his uh,

ship them the check that people has 15, it'd be their food by wouldn't, it'd be soon, but we'd be the ship that. all right. these kind of tactics and decked explored operations, where they bought and bought a bed. the lots of these, you know, things you do, this is what the, what is the void limit, the damage or deputies, just put it through the damage. it does, i believe so. so they can afford this guy, the damage. gimme a call, if it doesn't seem to be. i'm finally can i ask who i mean? russia has never shied away from a site with a extremist ideologues. what the thoughts, the to chechen rules was about is uh games i so in syria was a, that's a little so obviously with home grow a terroristic. so i'm putting in the quote because it is english out to you that were recent rates as well. um, so what, what do you expect to be the ramifications? it doesn't strike me that most go, well just take this lying down and say,

oh and not the terrorist attack. let's move on. we've got another a, you know, it's got a conflict and ukraine to deal with about going to be a probably more priority, which isn't a ramos, the cations of this will be when we see from moscow good idea of a solution of the, my analysis of the whole situation. yes. please see my end of the visit there is that most go should i've done it is fun to see a little bit in relation to dealing with using to mr. dennis. how to add, not act like the i might have guns or the charlotte canadians that if something better this activities that i can do, but it is something we added on. we keep silent of that by send. it shouldn't be most cool is that they have to look at their best each in policy. elizabeth bought a degree dealing when it comes to dealing with how do you, but a lot of us are all of that. i agree that emetic us of words. he's writing it into

religion and all, all, but i think most go ahead. i've loved a very good relations with these at i, and been how mazda and that you would love. i tried to upload the image that i do, because guys to be dealt with. i strongly that 0 because they used to be, i did do one of the me a techie dog. and then the other thing i might say it should be because china and russia are very good friends. but please, and i hope that i shouldn't but, but news is that these guy, the database have been supported by james. so they have to look at, you know, so, you know, sitting there on the policy. so it does, it should not affect that i should invest because if these get that is odd. um i

did, i bought a tv in the vote that will affect both of us young. so in my own country bottles. so the big of these drugs can of this well, that suss me a take, we appreciate your opinion on that. and i'm sure like you said, that will be conversations. how about how to move fluids in the counter terrorist flight? that was all and historian, capital cream, all. thank you so much. thank you. well, moving on, pictures have been released for to show the call, which the perpetrators use in the attack the terrace. so believe that to have arrived, an escaped from the venue in 2 different cause. a search for both vehicles is currently underway to well reaction to diversity has been floating in from around the walls. with waves of condemnation, china's president emphasized that his country imposes on the phones of terrorism,

informed me. suppose the russian governance efforts in maintaining national security and stability also into his prime minister under under a mood. he said that his country stops with russia and its hour of grief, while the south african embassy in moscow gave its conduct and says to the victims of the tragedy, this old african embassy stuff in moscow, including locally recruit the pesa matter or accounted for. we've also made contact with all so that we can students and that we know of what based and most cool in the whole sleep disability can government condense this and own of an x of tetra. we believe that ted organism in any shape or form and for what ever reason does not belong in our society and should be condemned by or would like to send a message of condom lenses to the government of russia to the families of the victims

as well as those that are in jet, we wished them a speedy recovery. this is a situation that will continue to monita and we show a shape of beings as and when we receive information. well, one of those to reacts has been the white house. i want to have some quick k to what the us national security advise that said, well coming specifically on the possible motives behind the attack clearly. so, you know, there are people in the, in las gone and russia that object to the way mister pool is governing the country . but i don't think we're at this early hour. we can make a link between the, the shopping all attack and in political motivations. isaac's use, we just need to, we more time and we need to learn more information. now the united states that it had no prior knowledge of the terrorist attack that took place, but many are raising questions about

a state department travel advisory to americans in russia, that specifically mentioned concerts as possible targets for a terrorist attack. and was issue just 2 weeks prior to today's her rendez, of that. now the russian foreign ministry spokesperson, maria, is a car of came forward with some very strong words for the united states. as russia is reacting to the horrifying scenes. here's what marie is a car. of a had to say the white house said it's, he's no signs that ukraine or ukrainians are involved in the terrorist attack in moscow. on what basis do officials in washington draw any conclusions about someone's innocence in the midst of a tragedy? if the united states has or had reliable data on this matter, then they must be immediately transferred to the russian side. and if there is no such data, then the white house has no right to issue condolences to anyone. all those involved, as stated by the russian leadership, will be identified by the competent authorities. now,

it's important to note that there was a telegram post by an individual representing the office of the ukrainian president saying, quote, let's be clear. ukraine has absolutely nothing to do with these events. and in addition to that, we have heard from the european union uh, the spokesperson. peter stano said, our thoughts are with all those russian citizens effective. the un set for terry general's office that it was saddened by the reports of the shooting as well. now, there were some strong words from the president of serbia. he said, i want to express my sincere condolences to the citizens and leadership of russia and the hope that the terrace will be arrested. and i hope that this will never happen again. a tragic event that has unforeseen consequences. there is no doubt. there will be further escalation in ukraine now. he went on from there to say every

day we are getting closer to a major conflict that i fear will take more lives than the 2nd world war. uh, so quite an important statement from the president of serbia and many are asking questions about that mysterious travel advisory from the us state department prior to the attack. and what us officials may or may not have know what information was available. people are also raising questions about what organizations or individuals may have been responsible for this and much information is expected to come in the following hours as the country is kind of locked down in the aftermath of these events, making sure that the perpetrators and all who aided them can be arrested and brought to justice. uh, there's a lot of sympathy and tiers and condolences for russia around the world. many around the world are offering words of sympathy, but also raising some serious questions about what caused today's adapts to be able

to happen. blogger and play school on those colleagues were purchased by feels that the reaction of the us and the fact that it had a wound of a potential tire attack. and most of them might be stopping. and i'm going to go back to the march 7th warning here. this was a warning that was uh, you know, alerted from the state department in the united states and it reads the following. it says, the embassy is monitoring reports, that extremist they use the word extreme is, have imminent plans to target large gatherings. they also point out moscow to include concerts. that's the 1st one. and us citizens should be advised to avoid large gatherings. now, i don't think that that is a clue. i think that is the us intelligence knowing this. and we see, you know, the us government's response and that response is, well, uh,

these things happen and building a narrative here. and it's a very disturbing one here, especially when you read them report that warning. we also have to understand is how this was orchestrated uh what apps were used for attend. it's very technological time that we're in. this has to be orchestrated to really go under the radar of a lot of these security agencies and we know very well that, you know, the rest of the security agencies know a lot about how to really kind of, you know, crush, i would say a terrorist attack or a terrorist attack on us soil. so this has happened to now, it's been brutal. once again, her effect display of a tear that has been uh, you know, shown to moscow residents. but as i said, again, this is going to take some time. the intelligence is going to figure out how this was done and orchestrated and who is connect.
