Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Saturday that authorities have detained 11 people in the attack on a suburban Moscow concert hall that killed at least 133 people.
In an address to the nation, Mr. Putin called it “a bloody, barbaric terrorist act” and said all four people who were directly involved had been taken into custody.
The Islamic State group’s Afghanistan branch claimed responsibility for Friday’s attack in a statement posted on affiliated channels on social media.
A U.S. intelligence official said U.S. agencies had confirmed that the group was responsible for the attack.
Moscow is the capital and largest city of Russia.
