The woman said that she came to the concert of the Picnic group at Crocus in the company of two friends. When the first bursts of machine gun fire rang out, they mistook them for a “strange sound check.” However, soon loud screams were added to this sound, and then the women saw the visitors running.

We had to get out of the building through the stage. There, according to the woman, there was a crush - the iron doors were only half open. Three minutes later, she still managed to get out into the street.

“Then time stopped and turned into a viscous substance. It seemed like an hour had passed,” she said.

Later the woman was able to find her friends. Now the surviving number from her wardrobe reminds her of the terrible events of that day.

Earlier, another Crocus survivor, who was with his wife in the cafe at the time of the terrorist attack, spoke about his salvation.
