The State Duma has awarded 15-year-old Islam Khalilov, who saved more than 100 people during the terrorist attack in Crocus City Hall. According to RIA Novosti, the young hero was awarded a grant to study in one of the Russian universities on the initiative of the autonomous non-profit organization "Society for Friendship with Kyrgyzstan".

The award ceremony was held in the presence of representatives of the organization, members of the deputy group on relations with the Kyrgyz parliament and diplomats of the Kyrgyz Embassy in Russia, including Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Gulnara-Klara Samat.

Earlier, the victims at Crocus accused the owners of the complex of providing unsafe services, and Reuters also shared that Iran had warned Russia of an impending terrorist attack on the eve of the attack on the complex.
