Two weeks ago the US gov warned about this https://ru.usembassy.gov/security-alert-avoid-large-gatherin...



> [The US gov] issued its warning several hours after the FSB, the main successor to the Soviet-era KGB, said it had foiled an attack on a synagogue in Moscow by a cell of the militant Sunni Muslim group Islamic State.


That was related to the fake elections in Russia. It was expected that some people would attempt to protest and the police will react violently


That looked more like an announcement, not a warning.


Many countries share information they have about imminent terrorist attacks with each other even when they don't have good relations. Russia and the US have done this before.


And what are you implying exactly?


We never know how is all connected but also China and Russia vetoed an US resolution [1] today. Not saying that there is a connection at all but we are living crazy times and it is very difficult, if not impossible, to understand the complexity and acceleration of events around.

Staying awake for more information.

BTW how many times China and Russia vetoed at the same time resolutions at the UN? Countin that from [2].

Not sure what you mean... Should we be surprised? It is normal that whenever something is discussed, usually either China is against, or Russia, or both - and the list you linked to confirms that.
