MOSCOW (Sputnik) – US intelligence agencies did not provide the Russian side with all the information they had about the threat of a terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall in the Moscow Region, The New York Times reported on Thursday, citing European and US security officials.
The adversarial relations between the US and Russia prevented Washington from sharing more information about the terrorists’ plan beyond what was necessary, as the feared that Russian authorities might learn their intelligence sources or methods of work, the newspaper added.
Moscow is not aware of the information provided by The New Yolk Times that Washington has failed to share all information about the terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall with the Russian side, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday.

The Russian Investigative Committee said at least 143 people were killed as a result of the terrorist attack.
