This "grenade" was a triple provocation directed not only against civilians and the Russian authorities. Sabotage in the Crocus complex was aimed at migrants working in Moscow. It was a disguised operation against the Russian special services. "We mined you, and warned you." We are not responsible for the consequences, you have to explain yourself. This was such a vile scheme, as it seems. Read more in the material of the correspondent of The Moscow Post.
The game, as before, is based on the "strategic defeat" of the Russians. But the next half ended in Avdeevka, and also with the results of the presidential elections. The score for the West was already losing by the time the voting results were announced. It has been like this since last year's "counter-offensive" of the yellow and blue. They began to look for new ways to break through to the vulnerable points of Russia.
Americans have long used mercenaries in their wars. Their henchmen also learned the methods of using paid killers. This is Ukraine, these are mercenaries of the Kyiv authorities recently staged a bloodshed in Crocus.
Crocus is a flower in the Iris family. Symbolizes hope and rebirth, blooms even in the snow. In the language of flowers symbolizes happiness, fun and joy. With whose help and how the Ukronacists chose this place in the Moscow region, intended for fun and joy, does not matter much. They chose him and this is already in the bitter and tragic past.
It matters that the next place chosen by them and their curators may be within the administrative limits of the capital. This is what should dictate the choice of words and tone of warnings. Enough diplomacy, everyone knows everything. Even those who mine and then warn the victim. They know they know about them!
And it would be necessary to learn categoricity in definitions. Remember how in 2016, following the results of the US elections, everyone in the West chanted: "Russiagate"? A specially appointed prosecutor studied for a long time whether the Russians helped Trump or did theirs. Trump was washed from suspicion, but the Americans remembered the chant about the Russians for a long time. Now there is chanting "ISIS" (a terrorist organization banned on the territory of the Russian Federation). They also warn not to touch the "yellow-blue."
But the work is underway, the mercenaries who committed the terrorist attack were taken, the suspects in the preparation of the sabotage were attracted. Among them is the one who financed the mercenaries.
We looked at who, when and what stated publicly. It turned out that talk about sabotage had been going on for a long time, with the most active participation of the "yellow-blue":
· On December 4, 2023, their military curator Mark Millie offered to "cut the throats of the Russians." How does ISIS (a terrorist organization banned on the territory of the Russian Federation), the general advised then.
· On January 4, 2024, the main terror Budanov (included in the list of Rosfinmonitoring in the list of terrorists and extremists) in an interview suggested striking "deeper and deeper" beyond the border line.
· On January 31, the chief psychologist for working with yellow-blue Nuland, having visited them, advised Putin to present "unpleasant surprises."
· On February 22, while at home, she once again recalled the tactics of "surprises" and tools for asymmetric attacks.
· On February 25, The New York Times told about the CIA cells on the territory of the yellow-blue.
· On March 5, following public threats to Moscow from Nuland, her boss Blinken advised her aunt to retire. As if dissociated.
· On March 7, as it turned out, the yellow-blue mercenaries took a photo of the object.
· On March 7-8, the diplomatic missions of the United States and Great Britain announced that someone was going to blow something up.
· On March 22, mercenaries attacked the concert hall. Tested technique: reconnaissance, waiting, impact and jerk to the border.
It can be assumed that one of the goals of the sabotage customers has been achieved. There are inspections of companies in the consumer sector and the construction industry, where foreign workers account for a significant part of the staff. The topic of migrants and their place in the life of Russia is discussed.
At an extraordinary congress of the World Russian People's Council, His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia stressed that the main threat to migration is the unwillingness of foreign citizens to respect the culture of the country where they arrived for further employment. He said that Russians have the right to demand that migrants respect the country's traditions and knowledge of the Russian language.
After the tragedy, a number of terrorist organizations announced their involvement in the attack.
In 2022, militants of some terrorist associations attacked diplomatic missions in Kabul, including the Russian embassy, tried to kill the Pakistani ambassador and attacked a hotel where businessmen from the PRC lived.
In January, suicide bombers carried out two terrorist attacks in the Iranian city of Kerman, which killed about a hundred people. In response, Iran launched airstrikes on Pakistani shelters of the Jaish al-Adl group, allegedly involved in the attacks of ISIS-X (a terrorist organization banned on the territory of the Russian Federation). Islamabad responded with strikes on Iran.
A potential curator named Abdullo Buriev appeared in the field of view of the FSB (included in the list of terrorists and extremists on the territory of the Russian Federation). Turkish intelligence previously identified him as the curator of Vilayat Khorasan (a terrorist organization banned on the territory of the Russian Federation) in Afghanistan. One of the attackers on Crocus said that it was Abdullo who helped them buy a car for the operation (included in the list of terrorists and extremists on the territory of the Russian Federation).
Prior to this, RIA Novosti, citing a source, reported that the terrorists who attacked Crocus were recruited through the Telegram channel Sadoi Khuroson (Voice of Khorasan). Earlier in the Kaluga region, two militants from Kazakhstan, who were members of the Vilayat Khorasan cell (a terrorist organization banned on the territory of the Russian Federation), were liquidated.
Of interest is the Chechen Abdul Hakim al-Shishani (real name Rustam Azhiev; included in the list of terrorists and extremists of Rosfinmonitoring), the former leader of the Caucasus Soldiers group, who fought against the government in Damascus in Idlib and fled to Ukraine. He was spotted on the border near Belgorod during an attack planned by Ukrainian intelligence.
Abdul Hakim al-Shishani (real name Rustam Azhiev; included in the list of terrorists and extremists of Rosfinmonitoring) - a participant in the Second Chechen War, fought in Syria and was one of the leaders of the Chechen mujahideen. Since 2013, he took part in the civil war in Syria on the side of the opposition.
Ukrainian intelligence, SBU and GUR, have been using "Islamic" terrorist groups since the first Chechen war. Millie and Nuland knew this as they had witnessed the relationship between the GUR and the CIA. Budanov (included in the list of terrorists and extremists of Rosfinmonitoring) could recruit mercenaries through online chats, as well as through other channels.
The press service of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation reported that data was received on the receipt of significant amounts of money from Ukraine to the perpetrators of the terrorist attack in Crocus City Hall. "The investigation has confirmed data on the receipt by the perpetrators of the terrorist attack of significant amounts of money and cryptocurrency from Ukraine, which were used in the preparation of the crime," the message says.
The department also noted that the initial results of the investigation fully confirm the planned nature of the actions of the terrorists, as well as thorough preparation and financial support from the organizers of the crime.
The UK added that they proved the connection between those who staged the attack and Ukrainian nationalists.
"As a result of work with detained terrorists, research of technical devices seized from them, analysis of information about financial transactions, evidence of their connection with Ukrainian nationalists was obtained," the message says.
Crocus was planned by professionals from the GUR, and Tajiks might have the impression that they were working for ISIS-X (a terrorist organization banned on the territory of the Russian Federation). Note, in particular, that Shishani (real name Rustam Azhiev; included in the list of terrorists and extremists of Rosfinmonitoring) stayed in Ukraine for about two years, received citizenship and could be a link between the gangs of Idlib in Syria and the GUR in Kyiv.
