The body of a Russian woman who went missing after Friday's terrorist attacks in Paris was identified by her husband on Tuesday, Russia's Foreign Ministry said, Interfax news agency reported.
She has been identified as Natalya Muravyova, and is the only known Russian who fell victim to the Paris terror attacks, Interfax reported Tuesday. She held both Russian and French citizenship.
Muravyova, with her husband Serge Lorain, attended the Eagles of Death Metal rock concert at the Bataclan concert hall when it was attacked by terrorists. The couple were separated by law enforcement officers during the evacuation, and Natalya went missing, state-run Vesti 24 television channel reported Tuesday.
Nearly 130 people were killed in the French capital as a result of a series of co-ordinated gun and bomb attacks. More than 400 people sought medical treatment and dozens were hospitalized in critical condition, international media reported this weekend.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
