Official Figures and Reports of Missing Persons in Moscow attack

Official figures state that 140 people lost their lives in the tragic incident, with an additional 182 individuals sustaining injuries. However, according to Baza news service, which maintains reliable connections within Russian security and law enforcement, emergency services have received appeals from relatives seeking information about missing loved ones, resulting in the compilation of lists.

“These lists contain individuals who have not been reached by their relatives since the terrorist attack, yet are not included in the roster of injured or deceased,” stated Baza. “Some of these individuals may have perished but remain unidentified.”

Russian investigators have determined that the attack involved four perpetrators armed with Kalashnikov automatic weapons. Evidence collected from the scene indicates the discharge of over 500 rounds during the assault.
