Following the tragic terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall in the Moscow region, the process of identifying the victims has commenced. According to reports from Russian state news agency RIA Novosti, the city's Department of Health has confirmed that the identification procedures are currently underway.
The identification process is being carried out at the Moscow Forensic Medical Examination Bureau, where relatives of the victims have been asked to participate in advance. This step is crucial in ensuring accurate identification and providing closure to the families of those affected by the attack.
