March 25, (THEWILL)- The United States has absolved Ukraine of any link to the recent terrorist attack on a concert hall near Moscow.
At least three men in camouflage on Friday evening, had broken into the Crocus City Hall concert venue in the city of Krasnogorsk, outside Moscow, shooting people point-blank and throwing incendiary bombs. The Russian authorities said that at least 137 people were killed in the attack.
 The US Vice President, Kamala Harris, claimed in an interview with the ABC News broadcaster, that a branch of the Islamic State terrorist group known as ISIS-Khorasan (banned in Russia), was behind the attack
“No, there is no, whatsoever, any evidence (of Ukrainian involvement). And in fact, what we know to be the case is that ISIS-K is actually by all accounts responsible for what happened”, she said.
Harris, who described the attack as “an act of terrorism”, said, “The number of people who have been killed is a tragedy, and we should all send our condolences to those families.”
But Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov, said there was no need to jump to conclusions as Russian special services were conducting investigations to find those responsible for the incident.
