The spokesman for the terrorist group, Abu Hudhayfa al Ansari, celebrated the attack on the concert hall in Crocus City Hall, on the western outskirts of Moscow, which left 143 dead and around 200 injured, according to figures from the Russian authorities. .
In a 41-minute voice message broadcast on Telegram, the spokesman sent a “reminder message” to Muslims and said that what is being done now to Muslims in Gaza is “what the Muslims suffered twice a few years ago.” brothers in Syria, Libya, Iraq, Sinai (Egypt) and Yemen.”
“We thank the soldiers of the caliphate for your efforts and we pray to God that you succeed in reaching the lands of Palestine to fight the Jews face to face in a religious war that will end them all. In this regard, we encourage the lone wolves to target Jews and Crusaders everywhere, especially in the United States and Europe,” he said in the message in Arabic distributed by the Al Furqan production company, the group’s propaganda organ. .
He called the war in Gaza a “wound of Muslims”, in which the fight is needed “and not just slogans and slogans”, according to the speech, also published on the occasion of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan and to commemorate the ten years of the establishment of the “caliphate”, which was self-proclaimed at the end of June by its first leader, Abu Bakr al Bagdadi.
“And the fight against the Jews is not accomplished if it is not with the fight against their allies: the infidels and the crusaders in all places. Starting from that we have begun the united invasion launched to support our families in Gaza and that represents brotherhood among the faithful,” he indicated.

Al Ansari thus reiterated his message broadcast on January 4 in which he called for attacks against the United States, Europe and the entire world, and in which he asked “not to distinguish between atheists, civilians or soldiers.”
The message in Arabic, spread through the jihadist group’s usual propaganda channels, has been confirmed by SITE Intelligence Group, an organization specialized in monitoring terrorist groups.
Al Ansari assured that he does not need to “give explanations” about the attack in Moscow last Friday because Russia is a country that “always fought against Muslims”, in reference to its intervention in Syria since 2015.
The president of Russia, Vladimir Putin, acknowledged on Monday that the attack was the work of “radical Islamists”, although he opened the door to speculation after ensuring that it was necessary to investigate “who benefits” from the attack, alluding to possible links of those detained with Ukraine.
