Debris removal at Crocus is carried out entirely manually, since heavy equipment cannot cope.
According to the Russian Investigative Committee, the death toll as a result of the terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall has increased to 133.
The Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations published a list of the dead.
