At least three killed in Moscow restaurant bombing, Russian officials say

An explosion occurred at a Moscow restaurant on Saturday, resulting in three deaths and 21 injuries. According to Russia's national anti-terrorism committee, as reported by Tass state news agency, a homemade explosive device detonated inside the restaurant located in Kudrinskaya Square. The incident involved an unidentified woman attempting to bring the device into the premises, which resulted in her death along with a security guard and a patron. Ria Novosti reported that the security guard had prevented the woman from entering before the bomb exploded. Authorities have not disclosed the identities of those affected or indicated any suspects. This comes amid heightened security measures by Russia's FSB due to a series of assassinations attributed to Ukraine. Kommersant newspaper suggested the bomb was meant to target guests on the restaurant’s summer terrace and may have been triggered remotely, implying the woman might not have been aware of the device's nature. The restaurant was reportedly closed for a private event on the day of the incident.
