The Islamic State (ISIS) has released a video showing the alleged attackers in the concert hall attack. Moscow It should appear. A „news agency” affiliated with the „Islamic State” organization distributed the video, adding that it was an „exclusive scene.” In light of Russian claims about Ukraine's alleged complicity in the attack, the publication appears to be an attempt by ISIS to prove its responsibility for the terrorist act that may have left more than 130 people dead.
In fact, the video footage was not previously known. ZEIT ONLINE has it. The 90-second recording was posted on the same channels for which ISIS claimed responsibility in writing on Friday evening. Terrorism experts believe the rhetoric of responsibility is original.
The video matches footage of the attack site and the suspects who were arrested
The video, which has now been released, shows a number of armed terrorists whose faces have been obscured and their voices distorted, most likely during the attack. You can see, among other things, how one of the two men shoots people with an automatic rifle while another man kills a seriously wounded person lying on the ground. The surrounding areas shown in the video, such as stairs and walls, match other footage of the attack site.
Such as independent Russian investigative media in exile AgentsmentionedTwo of the perpetrators who appeared in the video appear to resemble two suspects whose arrests were reported by Russian security authorities. One of them was wearing the same clothes as a detainee in the Bryansk region of Russia, as can be seen from the individual items on the clothes. Another has the same shoes. Russian security authorities reported the arrest of 11 suspects, four of whom were said to be directly linked to the attack.
The report contradicts many speculations that the suspects arrested by Russian authorities had no connection to the attack. The Russian security services have published video clips of a number of detainees and their interrogations, some of which show extremely brutal treatment of the men. This appears to be the man who was severely mistreated by the authorities during his arrest Agents It appears he was one of the shooters.
Conflicting information about the escape of the alleged perpetrators
Russia President Vladimir Putin and Russian domestic intelligence announced Ukraine's alleged involvement in the attack, despite a message from ISIS claiming responsibility for the attack. The arrested attackers wanted to flee to the neighboring country. This seems to contradict the statement of the Belarusian Ambassador to Russia, Dmitry Krutog: he said high The official Belarusian news agency Belta said that the Belarusian authorities, in cooperation with Russian colleagues, were successfully able to prevent the perpetrators from escaping across the Russian-Belarusian border.
Ukraine strongly rejects the Russian accusations. Ukrainian military intelligence agency HUR said this was „another lie from Russian intelligence.” The day after the attack, the US government also confirmed that, in its assessment, ISIS was solely responsible for the crime. National Security Council spokeswoman Adrienne Watson said there was no Ukrainian involvement. She again referred to information about a planned attack in the Russian capital region that the US government had already received at the beginning of the month and shared with Russia at the time.
According to Russian authorities, at least 133 people were killed and several others were injured in the attack on Crocus City Hall in the Moscow suburb of Krasnogorsk on Friday evening. Russian state media at times reported at least 143 people killed.

Reinhold Messner talks about the biggest mistake of his life – the 79-year-old was 'on the edge of the abyss’
“One of my biggest mistakes was leaving them the majority of my assets in my will before I died,” Meisner says of his children. “They don’t understand that everything was a gift and don’t appreciate my generosity.” This is very disappointing to him, especially compared to his childhood, when there was nothing to bequeath but respect and gratitude.
Meisner explains to Pharmacy Journal “We were a big family, with many brothers and sisters, and we took care of our parents when they were old. For me, it was the opposite. The moment I distributed my material inheritance to my children and my wife, the family collapsed. The question of who got more was at the forefront and I was on the edge of the abyss when I was 75 years old.

DrThe European Commission is drawing further conclusions from Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s unilateral actions: EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said on Monday that upcoming meetings of foreign and defence ministers will be held in Brussels – not in the Hungarian capital Budapest.
Borrell said after a ministerial meeting in Brussels that he had taken the decision after a majority of ministers spoke out against Hungary and wanted to impose „symbolic” consequences on the country. According to Borrell, 25 foreign ministers condemned Orban’s behaviour. The Hungarian received support only from Slovakia.
But Borrell has also been heavily criticised for his uncoordinated move to cancel the Budapest meeting. “Spain does not support a boycott in the EU,” Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares said. Luxembourg’s Foreign Minister Xavier Bettel called the idea of a boycott “nonsense”. Bettel said he would rather go to Budapest and express his opinion to the Hungarians. Germany, France and the Netherlands have also voiced opposition to Borrell’s proposal.

In Brussels, it cannot be ruled out that Borrell’s boycott campaign will ultimately backfire: several ministers are now said to be staying away from the Brussels meeting on 28-30 August in protest.

Hungary has held the six-month rotating presidency of the Council of the European Union since the beginning of July. Immediately after that visit began, Orbán made a surprise visit to Ukraine, Russia and China on a self-proclaimed “peace mission.” He also met with US presidential candidate Donald Trump. His meetings have drawn criticism from EU member states.
The European Commission had already reached its first conclusions a week ago. A Council spokesman had said that no commissioners would be sent to informal meetings of the Hungarian Council Presidency, but only senior officials. The decision was taken by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. There will also be no customary inaugural visit by the Commission to the new Council Presidency.
