The White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, issued a statement on Saturday strongly condemning the terrorist attack that took place at a concert venue complex near Moscow. The attack resulted in at least 133 fatalities and numerous injuries as assailants armed with guns and incendiary devices stormed the venue.
ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack, although no evidence has been provided to support this claim. Jean-Pierre emphasized that ISIS is a common terrorist enemy that must be defeated globally. The United States extends its deepest condolences to the families of the victims and those affected by this heinous act of violence against innocent civilians.
