An eyewitness to the terrorist attack at Crocus told RT about the moment when the terrorists entered the hall. Tatyana Artamonova, who together with her husband was waiting in the Crocus City Hall for the start of the Picnic concert, said they heard machine gun shots.

She noted that already on stage she realized that they had burst into the hall and that it was not from above, but where the stalls were. At least 40 people died and more than 100 people were injured.
