Two of four suspects that carried out the attack in a Moscow concert hall that killed at least 137 people have been charged in Russia.

Dalerdzhon Mirzoyev and Saidakrami Murodali Rachabalizoda were pictured in a Moscow court as they faced a charge of committing an act of terrorism.

Islamic State has said it carried out March 22 outrage at Crocus City Hall.

Russian officials have claimed, without evidence, Ukrainian involvement. Kyiv says the claim is “absurd”.
