Why Did the Islamic State Target Russia?
Quick Glance: Russia Casts Doubt on ISIS Attack in Moscow

  • 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.
