The White House on Thursday, in response to the Russian announcement according to Reuters, said that the Islamic State (IS), which has repeatedly claimed responsibility for the attack near Moscow, is solely responsible.
Without providing evidence, Russia pointed to Ukraine’s alleged involvement in the attack almost from the beginning. Just about two and a half hours after the massacre in Krasnogorsk, near Moscow, last week on Friday, Russian ex-president Dmitry Medvedev indirectly blamed Kiev. Later, Russian President Vladimir Putin himself joined. On Friday and Saturday, IS claimed responsibility for the crime a total of three times, whose involvement was ignored by Russia until Monday.
When Moscow admitted that IS was really behind the massacre, Putin said without providing proof that the Islamists were connected to Ukraine.

In addition, the head of the Federal Security Service (FSB), Alexander Bortnikov, stated on Tuesday, according to the newspaper Kommersant, that not only Ukraine, but also the United States and Great Britain may be involved in Friday’s attack.
Both Kyiv and Washington have previously denied Ukrainian involvement in the attack. “There is no indication at this time that Ukraine or Ukrainians were involved in the shooting,” White House security adviser John Kirby announced on the day of the shooting, saying that the Islamic State was solely responsible for the attack. “That scoundrel Putin, instead of dealing with Russian citizens and addressing them, was silent for one day and was thinking all the time how to blame it on Ukraine,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
