Canada Echoes U.S. ‘Mass Casualty Event’ Warning for Moscow

Global Affairs Canada echoed the U.S. Embassy’s warning Saturday, urging Canadians in Russia to avoid the Tsaritsyno Museum Reserve in Moscow. The U.S. Embassy described the threat of a “mass casualty event” as credible and said it was coordinating with Russian authorities. Canada’s advisory cites the war in Ukraine and terrorism risks, advises Canadians to consider leaving Russia commercially, and tells those remaining to keep a low profile. It also notes dual Canadian-Russian citizens may face mandatory military service call-ups.
