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.
