Russia has just experienced its deadliest domestic terror attack in 20 years, when four gunmen stormed a concert hall in Moscow and killed at least 137 people, with at least 140 others injured. Now, as the four gunmen face trial, questions are being asked about the failure of Russian intelligence to foreshadow the attack - all despite some very explicit warnings from U.S. intelligence services only a few weeks ago. Today on the podcast, we’ll explain what happened, what the world knew, and how Russia is responding.
