A fire at a Moscow concert hall following a gun attack that killed more than 60 people has been "mostly eliminated", the Russian capital's governor said on Saturday.
"There are still some pockets of fire, but the fire has been mostly eliminated. Rescuers were able to enter the auditorium," Moscow Governor Andrey Vorobyov said on Telegram.
Meanwhile, law enforcement officers have completely cordoned off Red Square in central Moscow after the terrorist attack and all entrances to the square are currently blocked, according to Russia's TASS news agency.
