The clue is broken, what are the terrorists hiding?
Russia Today reports: Four terrorists have been arrested, one has had one eye blown out, one has had one ear cut off by Russian Security Service special forces, one has been approached by a group of Chechen special forces and is being rescued in the ICU, and one is holding down and shivering.
However, after interrogation, the Russian Security Service received the same testimony. Although they were all executed, several terrorists had their mouths very hard and had not yet pried them open.
When asked why he went to Moscow to kill people, the terrorists said that a person named Messenger contacted him on the Internet on the Telegram channel, and that they had come to Russia from Tajikistan to work, and that they had taken the job because they had no job.
Some terrorists say that the promised bounty is 500,000 rubles, while others say that the promised bounty is 1 million rubles. Half of the money has now been given to them.
None of them had met the messenger, they didn't know who it was, they didn't know how to contact him, and they didn't know where the messenger lived. The messenger, who goes by the screen name, gave them the address of a storage room, where they obtained AK-12 assault rifles, AKM assault rifles, PM pistols, grenades, incendiary grenades, and a large number of bullets.
They arrived in Moscow by plane from Turkey, and the last messenger told them that the target of the attack was a concert in the "Saffron City Hall" in Krasnogorsk, Moscow Region. Kill as many people as you can, and you'll pay the other half of the bounty.
Now the results of the interrogation are out, all of them are Tajikistanis, all of them have come to Russia to work, and none of them have jobs. Met a man on the Internet who said to give them money to go to Moscow to kill people. No one knew the man.
The clues have been cut off, and if they are called like this, they will not confess, so what are they hiding? These terrorists are deceiving the Russian KGB as a novice.
These terrorists have received serious military training, whether it is the ability to shoot, the ability to cover each other, or the psychological quality of calmness, which has even undergone rigorous training for several months. It can't be done by a few unemployed workers.
Even the terrorists carried out a tight tactical coordination in the concert hall, and several terrorists relied on shooting to gradually expel the audience into the concert hall. In fact, it was by firing guns to concentrate the crowd in the hall.
Finally, the terrorists began to throw Molotov cocktails and closed the gates. As a result, a large number of spectators were killed and injured due to the smoke. This kind of well-planned tactics and tight coordination will not be something that a few unemployed migrant workers who do not admit defeat to each other can do.
It is also known that installing a mine in an abandoned car is not something that ordinary criminals can think of and do. Even the vast majority of ordinary people have never seen what a trick thunder is in their lives, and they don't know how to arrange it.
A few terrorists, one with his ear cut off, one in the ICU, one blinded in one eye, are still making up stories, what are they hiding?
The Public Relations Center of the Russian General Security Service has announced that Russian intelligence and law enforcement officers have arrested seven suspects in addition to the four terrorists who opened the shot, Sputnik reported. The interrogation breakthrough should be opened from among the seven answering personnel. It is impossible that all 11 people are die-hard elements who are not afraid of death and are not afraid of execution.
IS-K attacked Iran, attacked Russia
This time, it was not the IS group in the Arab region that attacked the concert hall in Moscow, Russia, but the IS-K group in the Thiol-Afghanistan region. In 2014, when the IS militant group was fighting in Iraq and Syria, it sent a cadre into Afghanistan to establish the so-called IS group Khorasan province.
After the killing of Syrian IS leader al-Baghdadi by U.S. forces, the Afghan IS group Khorasan province developed into an IS-K militant group. Become an independent armed group, the main members of which are no longer Arabs, but Turkic peoples of Central Asia.
In recent years, IS-K militant groups have continued to carry out terrorist attacks in Central Asia, Afghanistan, Iran, and Pakistan. As recently as October 2023 and January 2024, IS-K militant groups attacked Iran twice, killing and wounding hundreds of people.
When U.S. troops withdrew from Kabul airport in 2021, IS-K militant groups launched attacks at the airport, resulting in dozens of U.S. and Taliban casualties. With the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan, IS-K militant groups began to attack the surrounding Iran, Russia, Pakistan, and even Afghanistan from primarily attacking U.S. targets.
The backbone of the IS-K armed group has combat experience in Syria and Iraq, and the current members have accumulated a lot of combat experience in Afghanistan. Armed with a variety of automatic weapons, even mortars and bazookas. It poses a great threat to the border guards and internal security personnel of the general country.
In addition to Kazakhstan, the other four countries of the five Central Asian countries are relatively poor. IS-K armed groups have been able to recruit more members, particularly in Tajikistan, where military and police units thwarted about 30 terrorist attacks and arrested 365 members of terrorist groups in 2022. Every year, a large number of military and police officers in Tajikistan die as a result of anti-terrorist operations.
In fact, at the end of 2022, 2 Tajik recruits were still at the Russian army training ground, killing 22 Russian soldiers and wounding 16 Russian soldiers.
In order to suppress terrorist groups in the Central Asian region, Russia has a base of the 201st in Tajikistan. The base is Russia's largest overseas military base, and all Russian officers and soldiers have actual combat experience in Syria. But the problem now is that the elite veterans of the 201st base of the Russian army have all been transferred to the Russian-Ukrainian front.
