US Vice President Kamala Harris and the White House National Security Council have stated that there is no evidence linking Ukraine to the recent attack at a concert hall near Moscow. Instead, they have confirmed that ISIS-K is responsible for the tragic incident.
In an interview with ABC News, Vice President Harris emphasized that there is no evidence implicating Ukraine in the attack. She described the incident as an act of terrorism and expressed condolences to the families of the victims.
The National Security Council spokesperson, Adrienne Watson, further clarified that the US Government had shared information with Russia in early March about a planned terrorist attack in Moscow. Additionally, a public advisory was issued to Americans in Russia on March 7 to alert them to the potential threat.
Watson reiterated that ISIS-K bears sole responsibility for the attack and emphasized that there was no Ukrainian involvement in the incident. The confirmation from both the Vice President and the National Security Council aims to dispel any misinformation or speculation surrounding the tragic event.
The statements from US officials underscore the importance of accurate information and international cooperation in addressing acts of terrorism and ensuring the safety of individuals both at home and abroad.
