The Guardian is reporting this evening that three men wearing camouflaged outfits administered open gunfire among people at a Concert Hall in Moscow.
There's are reports of an explosion carried at the venue as well. I don't know how heavy the explosion at the moment. But reports suggests it could be a very serious one.
No reports of any injuries so far.

They probably also up for hire. Like any organisation they need money.
Link? I can’t see anything on their website.
unconfirmed
In fairness to them. Their beliefs are bigger than money and this is their natural part in accordance with those beliefs.
Isis cnuts. Animals.
Not wrong.
Seems to be some confusion over a second attack. Sky saying Reuters reported one but seems to be only them reporting at present??
Watching sky news now and no mention.
But Jesus Christ the scenes from today are horrific. I am absolutely aghast that this could happen in a civilised society.
edit; nvm they just said 28 people reported to be injured in a separate incident were actually injured in the initial one.
They just confirmed there wasn't a second attack.
Hard to say how civilized Russia is these days but I digress...
Very poor form from Sky.
I think you will find option B has been in play for.the last 2 years
They were almost ejaculating in hope of more attacks.
That concert was sold out nearly 5k apparently.
Mostly kids and young teens with family. Seems familiar to the Manchester bombing a few years back but with this attack it was 5 people murdering instead.
There needs to be serious questions to this sort of shite happening across the board, how many has been foiled by intelligent (across the EU and Russia) we'll never hear about. what a cowardly act.
Am against Putin and all that is with Russia atm but I'm sick to the stomach of these barbaric attacks, no end in sight. Like a jack in box terrorists appearing all around the EU. Hopefully I'm wrong but I think after the Gaza war this will only get worst.
No matter the cause for this attack, its fcking inhumane and perverted...
There have been very few terrorist attacks in Europe in the last five years though - it has been remarkably quiet.
It will get worse after the push back in Gaza but all they ever need is an excuse, out of most world leaders Putin is the most pro Palestinian and the most popular among Palestinians but he is still a kaffir.
I think the day will come that we will be targeted. Scary stuff.
It is so scary how much enmity there is in the world, all very accelerated by the speed and efficiency of communications.
emnity isn't a strong enough word, animosity.
Does anyone know if theres a reason for IS doing this or is it just violence for the sake of violence?
The only thing I can come up with is the war in Afghanistan but that was so long ago.
Russia has been hostile to Israel and I wouldn't exactly call it the "west". I could understand more an attack in China because of their treatment of the Uyghurs.
Am I missing some fundamental reason for this attack or is it reasonless?
It was always this way, unfortunately. We are lucky to live on this little island.
There's way too many attacks like this recently in the past years within the EU. It really depends on how someone views these terrorist attacks as a non remarkably quiet spell we're experiencing at the moment but its a consent threat, France in a state of emergency for how long ?
Anyways by the looks, this attack was pre planned in Moscow towards innocents, if these "fighters" where serious vs Russia they could of attacking army personals. Wittiness some of the videos which I regret seen, it looks like an attack on the lowing hanging fruit which is vs civilians.
They're just brain washed head bangers. Savages who like to kill. They hide behind a so called cause.
The Phillip Dwyers of this world are probably actively hoping for such an event to happen for the political hay they'd try and make with it.
It seems that ISIS are behind this attack now. I hope the perpetrators of this attack are brought swiftly to justice. I might not agree with Russian foreign policy but that doesn't mean that i hate Russian people.
No reason but that their faith commands it.
I can't think of any attrocity in Russia, or linked to it, in recent times when a light scratching away at the cover story didn't reveal the FSB involved in it.
The 1999 apartment building bombings - FSB were caught in the act by tenants.
The theatre hostage taking by Chechens. All of the victims were killed by the FSB, the Chechens didn't kill a single hostage.
The Beslan school massacre: not only were the FSB involved in facillitating it, they took control of the whole operation, refused to let a former Chechen leader through to negotiate then instigated a heavy assault in a way calculated to kill as many of the hostages as possibly, employing flame throwers, rocket launchers and tanks, with one firing 7 shots.
The Journalist Anna Politkovskaya was murdered by the FSB. First they poisoned her on a plane, but that didn't work then they had her shot. She claimed the FSB and Putin deliberately instigated the second Chechen war.
The FSB engineered the second Chechen war.
The murder of opposition leader Boris Nemtsov within sight of the kremlin - FSB.
Alexander Litvinenko - murdered with polonium in London - FSB
The poisoning of the Skripals, police constable Kier Pritchard and murder of Dawn Sturgess - FSB
The Poisoning of Alexei Navalny with Novichok - FSB
The poisoning of the wife of Ukraine's intelligence chief Budanov with heavy metals - the tooth fairy
Murder in Spain of the Russian helicopter pilot who defected to Ukraine - the tooth fairy.
Attack on concert audience in Moscow claimed by ISIS - well if it's not actually the tooth fairy or FSB, it would be an amazing first - nah, I'll go with FSB.
Hmmmm....do you think they would attack China?
Yes
Mate go lie down and turn off the internet for a while. Tinfoil hat stuff.
