According to TASS , the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai (UAE), lit up with the Russian flag on the evening of March 23rd to commemorate the victims of the terrorist attack at the Crocus shopping center on the outskirts of Moscow on March 22nd.

Not only did the Burj Khalifa illuminate the entire building with the Russian flag, but it also displayed the message "UAE supports Russia" in both Arabic and English. This initiative was carried out by the Dubai city government and the development company Emaar.

According to WAM news agency, the lighting of the Russian flag in Dubai on the evening of March 23 demonstrated the UAE's clear opposition to all forms of violence and terrorism aimed at destabilizing the country and inconsistent with international law.

This initiative also demonstrates that the leaders and people of the UAE support Russia and the people of the UAE in their fight against terrorism.

On March 22, a terrorist attack occurred at the Crocus City Hall complex, located in Krasnogorsk, a city in the Moscow Region. The complex includes a theater, a shopping center, an exhibition center, a children's entertainment area, and a wedding venue.

TASS reported that they witnessed at least three suspects, three men in camouflage clothing, breaking into the concert hall, firing at people at close range, and throwing Molotov cocktails. Russian security forces subsequently apprehended the three suspects as they fled near the Ukrainian border on the afternoon of March 23 (local time).

According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, preliminary data suggests "a door was prepared" from Ukraine for the group to cross the border. However, Ukraine vehemently denies any involvement in the terrorist attack.
