<p>Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowledged this week that Islamic terrorists were behind the massacre at a concert hall that killed well over a hundred people.</p>
<p>Four terrorists armed with fully automatic weapons and explosives stormed the Crocus City concert hall in Moscow on Friday and opened fire on a sold out concert while simultaneously setting the building on fire.</p>
<p>At least 139 people have died from the attack and dozens more injured, according to figures released by the Russian government.</p>
<p>&#8220;We know that the crime was perpetrated by radical Islamists,&#8221; Putin said in an address on Monday.</p>
<p>The 71-year-old then suggested that Ukraine was somehow linked to the attack and that ISIS-K could not have carried out the attack alone because the &#8220;organization banned in Russia.&#8221;</p>
<p>Officials have warned that Putin will try to blame Ukraine for the attack to justify escalating his war against Ukraine.</p>
<p>The Russian government claimed that the terrorists tried to escape to Ukraine and suggested that there was an escape route opened for them by people inside the country — claims that have not been corroborated.</p>
<p>&#8220;It is also necessary to answer the question why the terrorists tried to go to Ukraine after committing a crime, who was waiting for them there?&#8221; Putin asked. &#8220;It is clear that those who support the Kyiv regime do not want to be accomplices of terror and sponsors of terrorism, but there are really a lot of questions.&#8221;</p>
<p>“We know by whose hands this atrocity was committed against Russia and its people, and we are interested in who the instigator is,” Putin added.</p>
<p>The intelligence services for the U.S. and France have both pointed to ISIS-K as the sole entity responsible for the attacks. ISIS-K took credit for the attack just a few hours after it happened.</p>
<p>The U.S. issued a public warning more than two weeks ago urging Americans in Moscow to avoid large crowds, especially concerts.</p>
<p>The U.S. government also reached out to the Russian government and warned them that ISIS-K was planning the attack.</p>
<p>“We gave them that private warning consistent with our duty to warn &#8230; when we see or when we gather intelligence of terrorist attacks or potential terrorist attacks,” a U.S. official said on Monday.</p>
<p>Russia failed to stop the attack.</p>
