Terrorist attack in Moscow
Let's remember that on March 22 in Crocus City Hall, terrorists attacked the audience during a concert, opening fire and detonating explosive devices. A fire broke out, causing the building's roof to collapse.

Panic erupted after the attack in Russia, which also affected the authorities. On March 29, the human rights project "First Department" reported that in St. Petersburg, law enforcement is conducting a large-scale operation aimed at identifying and deporting foreigners who do not have the right to stay in Russia.
