One week has passed since the mass shooting on the outskirts of Moscow, Russia.
Tajik authorities announced on the 29th that they had detained nine more people on suspicion of being involved in the incident.
Nine people have been indicted for the shooting incident, including four perpetrators of Tajik nationality or origin. Russian media reported on the 29th that nine people believed to have been in contact with the perpetrator were newly detained in Tajikistan.
"Who is the mastermind behind this terrorist incident? We will never know the truth."
Russian authorities are increasingly insisting that Ukraine was behind the attack, including claiming that Ukraine provided the funds.

IS-K, which the German Interior Ministry's Funke said “is to our knowledge the most aggressive IS affiliate at present,” has been linked by German authorities to three alleged plots since July.
Those include an alleged plan that prompted authorities to step up security at Cologne Cathedral over Christmas and, most recently, the arrest last week two Afghan men accused of planning to attack police near the Swedish parliament in response to the burning of copies of the Quran, the Muslim holy book.
French President Emmanuel Macron said Paris has intelligence pointing to “an IS entity” as responsible for the Moscow attack and that the group is believed to be involved in several attempted attacks in recent months in France.
He didn't specifically name IS-K but said during a trip to French Guiana that was why France raised its security alert as a “precautionary measure.”

Local media reported that the U.S. government had named the concert hall that was the actual target of a mass shooting on the outskirts of Russia's capital, Moscow, and informed Russia in advance that there was a risk of a terrorist attack.
On the 2nd, the Washington Post quoted a US government official as saying that more than two weeks before the terrorist attack occurred, Russia named the concert hall that was actually targeted and said it was a "possible terrorist target." It was reported that he had informed his side.
While he noted that it is not normal to provide intelligence to a hostile country because it would put the source of the information at risk, he also said the move was to avoid endangering Americans who may be gathered at the venue. There is.
``This raises new questions about why the Russian authorities did not take measures despite receiving information.''
