Earlier this month, the US embassy in Russia issued a security alert warning about a potential terror attack in Moscow and urged people to avoid crowds, monitor local media for updates, and be aware of surroundings.
“The Embassy is monitoring reports that extremists have imminent plans to target large gatherings in Moscow, to include concerts, and U.S. citizens should be advised to avoid large gatherings over the next 48 hours,” the March 7 security alert said.
Putin addressed the warnings a couple weeks later, criticizing the warning three days ago as “provocative.”

“All this resembles outright blackmail and the intention to intimidate and destabilize our society,” Putin said, according to state media reporting on his remarks.
The US embassy issued another alert on Friday saying it was “aware” of the attack and urged Americans to avoid the area.
I seriously doubt there was any conspiracy involved in this.
But I wouldn’t be surprised if there was.
Very peculiar how people openly accept that the CIA knew, but can’t entertain the idea that they would be behind it. How else would they know?
More than one person was involved in a plan to kill a bunch of people. That’s pretty clearly a conspiracy. The only thing to debate is, who’s conspiracy.
