Putin expresses condolences to victims of attacks on Crimea and Dagestan

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday (24) that Vladimir Putin expresses his deepest condolences to those who lost their relatives during the recent attacks in Russia.

“Adequate help will be provided to everyone and, of course, help is being provided by the health services to all those who have suffered,” Peskov said.

Men armed with automatic weapons stormed an Orthodox church and a synagogue in the ancient city of Derbent on Sunday night (23), set fire to an icon in the church and killed a 66-year-old Orthodox priest, Nikolai Kotelnikov.

In the Caspian city of Makhachkala, about 125 km to the north, attackers shot at a traffic police post and attacked a church.

In Crimea, Ukraine carried out an attack with five missiles supplied by the United States. The action killed at least five people, including three children, and injured 124 more, according to Russian authorities.

“Responsibility for the deliberate missile attack on the civilians of Sevastopol lies above all with Washington, which supplied these weapons to Ukraine, and the Kiev regime, from whose territory this attack was carried out,” the Russian Defense Ministry said.
