Original Note:
The alert by the US state department on March 7 was a response after Russia (FSB) successfully thwarted a terrorist attack on a synagogue by the Islamic State or ISIS. Hence the "48 hour" warning. https://www.reuters.com/world/us-embassy-warns-imminent-extremist-attack-moscow-2024-03-08/ https://thediplomat.com/2024/03/alleged-iskp-plot-foiled-in-russia-2-kazakh-citizens-killed/ Also this is not the first time ISIS attacked recently. https://www.stimson.org/2024/what-does-a-recent-isis-k-terror-attack-mean-for-turkey/
