Russian President Vladimir Putin has already called the explosion at a grocery store at an entertainment complex in St. Petersburg a “terrorist attack.”

A video uploaded on Thursday features a man, the alleged attacker, slowly walking in the supermarket and carrying a backpack, reportedly containing an improvised explosive device. A few seconds later he appears before the camera without his bag, which he, apparently, had left inside a locker, where the blast later occurred, leaving at least 13 people injured and prompting the evacuation of an estimated 50 people.
