This follows from the testimony read out by the prosecutor in the Moscow District Military Court.

Kyrgyz citizen Muhammadzhon Turdiev, who is a witness in the terrorist attack in St. Petersburg, said he received such an assignment from militants in Syria.

“In March 2017, I received the task of committing a terrorist act in the port of Vladivostok - to blow up one of the warships,” RIA Novosti quotes his testimony.

Earlier it was reported that the alleged organizer of the terrorist attack in the subway of St. Petersburg, which occurred on April 3, 2017, Abror Azimov pleaded not guilty during the trial.

It also became known that the defendants in the case of the terrorist attack on the St. Petersburg metro were recognized as responsible.
