A photograph has emerged of Fariddun Shamsutdin, one of the terrorists involved in the Moscow concert hall terror attack at Crocus City Hall, scouting the site on March 7, two weeks before the incident. This attack is noted as the deadliest shooting in Russia for the past 20 years. The photo, accidentally taken by a freelance photographer working at the venue, suggests that Shamsutdin was examining the layout, security measures, and possible escape routes in preparation for the attack. Reports also indicate that Shamsutdin had been in Istanbul, Turkey, on February 23, a month prior to the attack, sharing photos on his Instagram account, which is banned in Russia.
