On October 23, 2002, Chechen rebels stormed a Moscow theater during a performance of the musical Nord-Ost. They took about 900 people hostage, including 90 staff members of the theater. The rebel group consisted of 40-50 gunmen, led by Movsar Barayev. After releasing several hostages, they demanded that Russian military forces be pulled out of Chechnya within a week. They also threatened to blow up the building in case of a counter-attack. The rebels released about 200 people, mostly women and children. The remaining hostages included up to fifty foreigners – people from Great Britain, the US, and the European Union. Three days later Russian troops raided the building. 129 hostages died as a result of a gas that was used by federal forces to subdue the rebels.
