ISIS celebrate St. Petersburg attack

Motivations of attack still unclear

Newsroom April 3 07:38

Isis supporters are cheering the attack in St Petersburg that killed at least 9 people.
While the motivations and cause of the attacks still aren’t clear, Vladimir Putin has said that Russia is considering a terror attack “first of all”.
Isis supporters are cheering what they claim is a terror attack, and sharing images of people caught up in and killed by the blasts.
The attacks come after waves of Isis propaganda that encouraged its supporters to launch strikes on Moscow. Isis propaganda shows bullet holes through Mr Putin’s head as well as a poster circulated just days before the attack that showed a falling Kremlin and included the message “We Will Burn Russia”.
