“We are alive… Health to all. Condolences to all who suffered… It was horror,” Svetlakov said on his Telegram channel, avoiding giving details.
KP.RU reports that Svetlakov is a big fan of the Picnic group, the showman tried not to miss the performances of this group. The concert at Crocus City Hall on March 22 promised to be special, because “Picnic” was supposed to perform with the orchestra. But a few minutes before the start of the concert, shots began, explosions were heard and the building caught fire.
Now the figures are announced: 40 dead and 100 injured. The magnitude of the tragedy is still difficult to imagine: a rescue operation is underway in the building and security forces are working. At the same time, the fire devastated the complex itself and the area of the fire reached 13,000 square meters.
