@pollar.news: An explosion killed three people at the Balzi Rossi restaurant on Kudrinskaya Square in Moscow on Saturday evening, at the foot of one of Stalin's seven skyscrapers. State television suggested a gas cylinder; a Telegram channel placed the blast in the restaurant's kitchen. The restaurant said its kitchen was untouched and the damage was outside, at the entrance. The official finding later confirmed that geometry. At the door, a security guard stopped a woman carrying a box wrapped as a gift. Investigators say it held a homemade bomb packed with ball bearings, detonated — they believe — remotely. The guard died stopping her. She died too, and one guest. Who she was has not been established. Twenty-one people were injured, according to the National Anti-Terrorism Committee. At 23:14, the committee named the cause: an improvised explosive device. A terrorism case under Article 205 was opened before midnight. The gas story had survived about three hours. It was not the first such first explanation. Eleven months earlier, a blast at the Central Children's Store next to FSB headquarters was blamed on a gas cylinder within hours. There, gas remains the official finding. Twice in a year, the first explanation was gas. This time, the restaurant contradicted it in public while the story was still running. The venue was closed for a private event. A Telegram channel said a wedding; a witness told the Astra outlet it was a general's birthday. Neither is confirmed. As of August 2, no suspect has been named and no one has claimed responsibility.

The worst thing is that the Russian media is covering it up.

PlasticBrie :

When the guard guy stopped that women with a bomb, at that momen it was clear they can't get to the target, but they decided to kill civilians anyway. It's not "colateral damage" it's a textbook terrorism

Why are people all over the world celebrating a terrorist attack, literally the worst manifestation on earth? The use of a female suicide bomber for their own ends and the deaths of non-combatants in a targeted attack. Shame on Europe, shame on all the intelligence agencies of "developed" countries that support this. If at some point your government starts doing things that are unacceptable worldwide, then you're ready for explosions in restaurants and children's stores. Don't lie to others, and most importantly, to yourself, that you'll do something about the government. First, quit TikTok.

Tragic loss of innocent life. Thing is, whilst this is most likely Ukrainian, the Russian govt. is so batshit insane that it could have been their own bomb to bring a bad reputation to Ukraine

The Ukrainian government failed to assassinate the Russian Air force General
