What happened

The US Embassy in Moscow warned on 31 October of a credible threat of an attack with mass casualties at the Tsaritsyno museum-reserve in the city.

The embassy said it was working with Russian authorities to respond, according to its statement quoted by UNIAN.

It advised US citizens to stay away from the museum and the surrounding area that day, and to avoid crowded places.

Americans were also told to watch their surroundings, carry identity documents and follow local media for updates, Ukrinform reported.

Russia's FSB later told the TASS agency that it had received information from the American side through partner channels about a planned attack in Moscow, and that work on it was under way.

“The US Embassy in Moscow has learned of a credible threat of an incident that could cause mass casualties today, 31 October.”
