At least 133 people are dead and hundreds of others are injured after a deadly shooting at a concert hall in Moscow, Russia. Prime Minister Vladimir Putin originally blamed Ukraine, but the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) later claimed full responsibility. The Crocus City Hall is a large hall that can accommodate over 6,200 people and is located in the western suburbs of Moscow, and the building was left in flames after gunmen burst in and fired at everyone in sight. Witnesses reported that they just came in and silently shot everyone they could see, and chaos ensued. No one could figure out whether they should run or hide, and the hall was set on fire afterwards as well. Russian police arrested four suspects following the incident, and the entire world has condemned the attack. This shooting comes just after Putin was elected for his fifth term after he promised safety to his people amid Russia's war against Ukraine, but that safety may be in question. Nevertheless, this is a deeply saddening incident that the entire world is mourning.
