A Russian court has charged two men over their suspected role in the attack on a concert hall near Moscow that claimed at least 137 casualties. Authorities are continuing to scour the remains of the venue, which gunmen set alight after their shooting rampage. The so-called Islamic State has claimed responsibilty – a claim confirmed by the US and the UK. Russia is observing a national day of mourning after the attack, which the Kremlin has tried to link to Ukraine.
