Terrorist attack near Moscow: Russians are in shock, solidarity is taking shape
In Moscow, residents flock to donate blood on Saturday March 23. Tributes to the victims of the attack have multiplied in Russia.
Muscovites gathered in long queues on Saturday March 23 to donate blood. The least thing they could do, they say, given the scale of the tragedy. “I help in any way I can. Anyone can find themselves in this kind of situation”, confides a man. The scene of the attack is now cordoned off, but in the morning, some people managed to lay flowers. Advertising billboards in the capital have been replaced by candles.
Flags at half mast in Saint Petersburg
Tributes have multiplied in Russia, with flower laying in several cities. On the origin of the attack, the points of view of the people met by France Télévisions are varied. “We have enemies. They are the ones who did it”, thinks a woman. For his part, a man advances “an analogy with the attack on the Nord Stream gas pipeline”. “Or an act of madness”, he continues. In Saint Petersburg (Russia), the flags are at half mast.
