Took this down from IG because I was getting worried that it was gonna get removed by instagram, so I’ll just repost it here:

Russian media have reported that all four suspects involved in the Crocus City Hall attack in #Moscow have been captured.

Analysis of the photo released by ISIS (through Amaq) of the attackers confirms that three of those involved in the attack have been captured through their clothes alone.

There also appears to have been an attempt to blur branding in the photo, however, traces can still be seen, making identification possible (pixel compression by might make this a bit hard to see).

The only suspect not immediately identifiable through clothing is the third one, however, he was reportedly captured alongside suspect 4 and has admitted guilt.

Two of the suspects have said they are Tajik.

ISIS and more specifically ISKP (out of Afghanistan) have been gearing up for attacks abroad for a while now after years of relative inactivity.

They were behind the Kerman bombing in Iran earlier this year that resulted in hundreds of casualties.

Last week two suspected ISKP militants were arrested in Germany for planning an attack against Sweden.

Per US officials, Intel of an attack against Moscow was shared to Russian authorities in the past few weeks, leading to the March 7 terror alert made by the State Department, however, this was ultimately dismissed by Putin in statements three days ago where he called it “provocative statements” meant to “intimidate, destabilize” Russian society.

More attacks are to be expected, but hopefully not to the likes of what we saw in 2016-2017

ISIS has released footage from the Crocus City Hall attack.

Footage shows one of the attackers firing into a hallway at downed venue goers before they make their (temporary) escape.

Footage also shows an injured man having his throat slashed several times.

Weapons and outfits match up to other videos taken during the attack

Dude who had his ear cut off appeared to have been doing most of the shooting

Trying to decipher who is who amongst the isis photo release, attack footage, and photos of who had been captured.

Suspect 1: Easiest to identify due to shirt color and design. In the latest footage he did most of the shooting (his ear was later taxed by OMON or SOBR)

Suspect 2: Shirt matched before and after attack, appears to have put on a jacket. Matched hat color.

Suspect 3: Shirt and jeans match during and after attack. Grey hat matched before and during attack.

Suspect 4: Clothes matched before and after the attack. Only suspect left out of the four.

Three out of the four Moscow terror suspects have pleaded guilty to taking part in the attack. The fourth suspect, seen in the wheelchair, refused to plead.

Photo of #Massachuetts State Police SPOT robot dog “Roscoe” that was shot several times and rendered inoperable during a standoff situation with a barricaded suspect at a home in Barnstable, #CapeCod, earlier this month.

Authorities were initially dispatched to the home after the suspect threatened his mother with a knife, where he later fired at responding officers with a rifle.

According to MSP, the dog, which was operated by a MSP bomb squad member, was deployed to “safely gather crucial intelligence and provide situational awareness of the suspect and the home’s interior.”

While in the basement, the dog located the suspect, who then knocked it over and began going up the stairs to the ground floor. The dog was able to right itself and “when the suspect realized, with apparent surprise, that Roscoe was behind him on the stairs, he again knocked the robot over and then raised his rifle in the Roscoe’s direction. The robot suddenly lost communications.”

The suspect then fired at another robotic platform deployed at the scene and eventually surrendered to SWAT team members after they deployed tear gas into the home. Via theatlasnews.co
