This is an absolutely horrific story…
**Before we jump in, please be warned that this article contains EXTREMELY GRAPHIC FOOTAGE.
Just a couple hours ago, several gunmen burst into the Crocus City Hall near Moscow and opened fire on the massive crowd.
Reportedly, the attackers also threw explosives, which led to lighting the concert venue on fire and eventually caused the roof of the building to begin collapsing with people still trapped inside.
So far, the casualties are up to 40 dead, 100 injured…
Here’s the footage (again, WARNING: GRAPHIC):

Details of the attack are still emerging.
But, it’s curious how, whoever is being the attack, correlated this with 3/22…
The roof of the Crocus Concert Hall in Moscow has begun to collapse after a terrorist attack. Reportedly there are still more than 150 people trapped inside.
Of course they did this on 3/22.
Skull & Bones.

The Moscow terrorist attack comes just two weeks after the U.S. embassy in Russia warned of mass attacks.
🇷🇺RUSSIA: "The United States must share any information it has on the attack near Moscow."
🇺🇸U.S: "Two weeks ago, the State Department, through our embassy there, issued a notice in Moscow to avoid any large gatherings, concerts, obviously shopping centers, anything like that."… https://t.co/La1Q3UAwc4 pic.twitter.com/FkShZSVMDQ

Politico has more details on the tragic, violent attack:
Several gunmen burst into a big concert hall in Moscow on Friday and fired automatic weapons at the crowd, injuring an unspecified number of people and starting a massive blaze in an apparent terror attack days after President Vladimir Putin cemented his grip on the country in a highly orchestrated electoral landslide.
Russian news reports said the assailants threw explosives, triggering a massive blaze at the Crocus City Hall on the western edge of Moscow. Video posted on social media showed huge plumes of black smoke rising over the building.
The attack took place as crowds gathered for a concert of Picnic, a famed Russian rock band, at the hall that can accommodate over 6,000 people. Russian news reports said that visitors were being evacuated, but some said an unspecified number of people could have been trapped by the blaze.
Russia’s state RIA Novosti news agency reported that at least three people in combat fatigues fired weapons. The state Tass news agency also reported the shooting.
Extended rounds of gunfire could be heard on multiple videos posted by Russian media and Telegram channels. One showed two men with rifles moving through the mall. Another one showed a man inside the auditorium, saying the assailants set it on fire, as gunshots rang out incessantly in the background.
ABC News also reported on the casualties:
At least 40 people were killed and over 100 others were injured in a shooting and explosion at Moscow’s Crocus City Hall — one of the biggest shopping and entertainment complexes in Russia — on Friday evening, according to the Russian Foreign Security Service.
Russia’s foreign ministry called the shooting and explosion a “terrorist attack.”
More than 70 ambulance teams were sent to the sight of the attack, according to Moscow Region Governor Andrei Vorobyov said. Two firefighting helicopters are also on the scene trying to put out the fire which spread over a large area, Vorobyov said.
Of those injured, at least 21 people were hospitalized, Vorobyov said on Telegram.
Most of the building is engulfed in fire and the roof partially collapsed, Russian news agency Interfax reported. The attack was carried out by a group of up to five unknown people.
Several gunmen burst into the concert hall and opened fire with automatic weapons, state news outlet RIA Novosti reported.
Attackers then threw a grenade or incendiary bomb, starting a fire in the hall, according to Russian state media.
So, what do you think is going on here?
Ukraine has already slammed it as a false flag by Putin…
Ukrainian intelligence have already called the attack in Moscow a “deliberate provocation by the Putin regime”.
Before the bullets stopped flying, Ukraine already claimed that it’s a false flag. I have a feeling Putin feels differently.
Regardless, it’s about to get ugly.… pic.twitter.com/om1CugwKXS

I’m not buying it…are you?
Here are a few other ideas:
There are three possibilities here:
1- US/NATO/Ukraine were behind the attack, in an attempt to force Putin to escalate, and drag NATO into full-scale WW3.
2- Russia were behind the attack to justify significant escalation.
3- Unknown entity carried out for unknown reasons.… pic.twitter.com/9ElLVOOrVr
