Russia says it has evidence of Ukraine’s involvement in Friday’s terror attack in Moscow. More than 140 people were killed. According to the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, the perpetrators allegedly received “significant amounts of money and crypto coins” from “Ukrainian nationalists.”
The evidence would come from the interrogations of the suspects in custody and the investigation into their electronics and financial transactions.
It is not clear what the evidence actually consists of. That was not released.
Denied
Ukraine has repeatedly denied that it had anything to do with the attack.
Terror group Islamic State (IS) has claimed responsibility for the terrorist act and also distributed images of the perpetrators during their deadly raid. Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowledged earlier this week that the attack was the work of “radical Islamists”, but also immediately pointed to Ukraine as the sponsor.

According to experts, Putin would do this to generate more support among the Russian population for his war in Ukraine. He was immediately assisted by two of his top officials: the head of the Russian security service FSB, Aleksandr Bortnikov, and the secretary of the Russian Security Council, Nikolai Patrushev. Bortnikov believed that Ukraine even received help from the United States and the United Kingdom.
Russian state media have also been spreading the message for days that Ukraine is behind the attack.
