Here’s a collection of posts and threads about the Moscow Crocus Theatre attack. I’m avoiding conspiracy theories and focusing on reliable sources (where possible)

A note to those claiming IS has no relevancy amongst supporters anymore: in the past year *globally,* there were 1.3 IS-related arrests everyday. 20 of them came from Russia too. So it’s not as if IS/ISKP hasn’t been active trying to attack Russia in the past 12 months. https://t.co/oH9vAhUaU4

If we think about Islamic State & al-Qaeda affiliates in terms of a #MarchMadness2024 bracket, #ISISK (Islamic State Khorasan) would the the number one overall seed. After U.S. withdrawal from AFG in Aug 2021, intel has degraded significantly. ISIS-K has both capability & intent.

Allegations that the Crocus City Hall attack was a false flag operation are inconsistent with the evidence ISW has observed from the attack itself correlated with other reports of previous IS external attacks that ISW and CTP have covered since the emergence of the Islamic State,… https://t.co/PEV2m5DbFW
