Russia says it is hard to believe Islamic State could have launched Moscow attack - Europe - The Jakarta Post

thejakartapost.com/world/2024/03/28/russia-says-it-is-hard-to-believe-islamic-state-could-have-launched-moscow-attack.html

Quick Glance: Russia Casts Doubt on ISIS Attack in Moscow

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said it was 'extremely hard to believe' that the Islamic State would have had the capacity to launch an attack on a Moscow concert hall that killed at least 143 people.

Zakharova reiterated Moscow's claims, lacking evidence, that Ukraine was behind the attack on the Crocus City Hall, the deadliest in Russia in 20 years.

The director of Russia's FSB security agency stated on Tuesday that he believed Ukraine, the United States, and Britain were involved in the Moscow attack.

The head of Ukraine's Main Intelligence Directorate, Kyrylo Budanov, stated at a security conference in Kyiv that he believed Russian authorities had known about preparations for a major attack since at least mid-February.

Quick Glance: The remarkable evolution of ISIS-K's leader into a formidable group

Sanaullah Ghafari, in his role as the leader of the Afghan branch of Islamic State, played a significant role in the transformation into an extremely menacing branch of the global Islamist network, capable of conducting operations far from their bases in the border regions of Afghanistan.

The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the massacre at a concert hall near Moscow that resulted in the deaths of at least 137 people. U.S. officials indicated that the Afghan branch, Islamic State Khorasan (ISIS-K), was responsible.

Ghafari has enhanced the group's strength through his firm ideology and notable attacks. He has made repeated attempts to target Russia in response to its involvement in the Syrian civil war, which contributed to defeating ISIS' regional operations.

By using high-profile attacks as a tool for recruitment, the group has focused on ethnic Tajiks and Uzbeks in Central Asia. ISIS-K is planning to escalate its foreign operations, including attacks against the United States.
