The death toll from the terrorist act on the Crocus City Hall concert venue near Moscow will rise significantly, Moscow Region Governor Andrei Vorobiev said on Saturday, adding that work has been underway to dismantle rubble at the scene of the attack and that not all the people have been freed. On Saturday morning, the rescuers entered the burned out auditorium of the Crocus City Hall, and the situation there remains difficult, which is why technical work is being carried out around the clock, the governor added. The purpose of the engineering work is to remove the collapsed roof, and all the facilities, equipment and necessary cranes are already at the site, the official added. A shooting occurred on Friday evening in the Crocus City Hall concert venue just in the city of Krasnogorsk, outside Moscow, followed by a massive fire. A Sputnik correspondent who witnessed the attack reported that at least three men in camouflage had broken into the music hall, shooting people point-blank and throwing incendiary bombs. According to the latest data from the Russian Investigative Committee, at least 115 people died in the terrorist attack and many others were injured. Eleven people were detained in connection with the attack, including four who were directly involved, the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) said. All four were detained in the Russian region of Bryansk, which borders Ukraine, a few hours apart, the FSB added.
