At least 40 people were killed and more than 100 were injured after armed attackers stormed a popular concert venue complex near Moscow and opened fire, according to preliminary information from the Federal Security Service in Russia, state media TASS reported.
i’m honestly not sure if the us had an active role in this, nor do i think the us would necessarily warn their own citizens if they did. but i am curious how strong us signal intelligence is within russia. did these terrorists operate from within russia and was the us able to pick up on their activity there? did they operate from within ukraine, where us intelligence has far better access? did they eavesdrop on fsb activity? something else entirely?
just saw while typing this that islamic state claimed responsibility, i have no clue where this is going tbh
Islamic State? ISIS… Oh … that’s definitely CIA.
re: isis
in the news mega, there’s a telegram post using the cyrillic alphabet saying that isis hasn’t used that template in years and thus it is a fake, though cnn is running it as real so
edit: here’s the thread i was referencing careful if you go digging into that megathread as there is a lot of CONTENT WARNING videos in there right now that you absolutely do not have to see
lmao i’m not surprised, they’re pretty irrelevant nowadays
Corruption was rife after the fall of the USSR. Businessmen and politicians were selling their mothers for a Mercedes Benz. A lot were purged after Putin got elected, but Russia is a big country. I wouldn’t be surprised if many of the US’ assets are still active. Especially after sanctions and oligarchs’ money were frozen or seized? They have many reasons to attack their own country
