Fact:
On April 3, 2017, the day Vladimir Putin was due to visit the city, a suicide bombing was carried out in the St. Petersburg metro, killing 15 people and injuring 64. An al-Qaeda affiliate, Imam Shamil Battalion, claimed responsibility.
"Hans-Jakob Schindler, senior director at the NGO Counter Extremism Project, spoke to DW about what the new Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire means.
Asked whether the deal could hold, as Iran, Hezbollah's main backer, seems to have agreed to its terms, Schindler said: "Absolutely. Hezbollah, especially now in its weakened form, is more dependent on Iran than it was a year ago. And hence, if the guys who are paying for the show are telling you that this is the decision, it is very clear that Hezbollah is going to keep to the agreement.""
