Russian Emergencies Ministry (EMERCOM) workers completed the removal of debris from the site of the burnt-out Crocus City Hall concert venue as well as search and rescue operations on Tuesday, following Friday's mass shooting and blaze.
The footage shows EMERCOM workers carrying out final work to remove construction debris and dismantling metal structures from the destroyed area.
"In total, the rescuers of the Russian Emergencies Ministry dismantled and removed more than 900 cubic meters of collapsed structures. In total, more than a thousand specialists and more than 300 units of equipment were involved in rescue work," the ministry stated.
Late on Friday, March 22, unidentified individuals dressed in military fatigues opened fire in the Crocus City Hall, a 6,000-seat multipurpose concert hall where a Russian rock band was set to perform. A massive fire broke out in the building shortly after.
At time of publication, 139 people were reported to have been killed. On Sunday, March 24, the Basmanny Court of Moscow ordered a number of suspects to be remanded in custody until May 22, on charges of 'terrorism'.
President Vladimir Putin declared a day of mourning and described the attack as a 'barbaric terrorist act' in a televised address on Saturday, adding that the suspects had been detained close to the border.
"They tried to hide and moved towards Ukraine, where, according to preliminary data, a window was prepared for them from the Ukrainian side to cross the state border," Putin said.
On Monday, he said that 'radical Islamists' were responsible but also hit out at the US for 'trying through various channels to convince its satellites and other countries of the world that, according to their intelligence, there is allegedly no trace of Kiev in the Moscow terrorist attack'.
"We want to know who ordered it," he added.
Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) also claimed the attackers planned to cross the Russian-Ukrainian border and 'had relevant contacts on the Ukrainian side'.
The White House stated that it was a ' terrorist attack that was conducted by ISIS' and that there was 'absolutely no evidence that the government of Ukraine had anything to do with this attack'.
The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said it 'categorically denies' accusations of Kiev’s involvement in the shooting.
