The ISIS terror group has declared responsibility for the killings which occurred at a concert near Moscow, Russia, on Friday.

ISIS revealed this in a statement published by an ISIS-affiliated news agency, Amaq, on Telegram. However, the terror group has not provided evidence to support its claim.

Recall that gunmen wearing camouflage killed at least 40 people and injured more than 100 at a concert in Crocus City Hall, near Moscow, Russia, on Friday.

Witnesses reported sudden gunfire disrupting the performance of the Soviet-era rock group “Picnic”, leading to chaos and a scramble for safety.

ISIS is an international terror group that has conducted terrorist attacks leading to the death of thousands.
