President Vladimir Putin has pledged to hunt down the orchestrators of the recent Moscow concert hall attack that claimed the lives of 144 individuals, marking the deadliest assault on Russian soil in 20 years. Despite the Islamic State group claiming responsibility for the March 22 tragedy, Putin has persistently attempted to link the incident to Ukraine and the West, disregarding Kyiv's denial and a U.S. government warning issued just days before the attack.
During a meeting with top Interior Ministry officials responsible for overseeing the nation's police force, Putin emphasized the importance of not only identifying the perpetrators but also unraveling the entire network behind the atrocity. He issued a stern warning, stating that those who target Russia should be aware that their actions have consequences.
