Europe 1 11:16 a.m., March 24, 2024

Guest of the Grand Rendez-vous d'Europe 1/ CNews/ Les Échos, the president of the Republicans, Éric Ciotti, returned to the attack which left 133 dead in a concert hall near Moscow on Friday evening, claimed by the Islamic State. For him, the "Islamist threat is there, it is present, it is lasting", and must be taken seriously, particularly in the run-up to the Paris Olympic Games.

133 dead and more than a hundred injured, according to a provisional report. On Friday evening, a concert hall near Moscow was the target of an armed attack, claimed by the Islamic State (IS). Eleven people, including four suspected attackers, were arrested by Russian security services “while they were heading towards Ukraine,” said Vladimir Putin. The head of the Kremlin did not accuse the jihadist group either. Guest of the Grand Rendez-vous d'Europe 1/ CNews/ Les Echos, Éric Ciotti returned to this attack which "reminds us of the Islamist threat, which many tend to attenuate". It represents, according to the president of the Republicans, “the heaviest threat weighing on our future”.
