US actor Steven Seagal visited victims of the Moscow concert hall shooting this week as he declared the attack a “terrible tragedy”.
Russia’s ministry of health posted photos of the 71-year-old meeting patients at the capital’s Pirogov National Medical Center.
“I thank the doctors for the prompt work they are doing, I am glad to see that the patients are feeling well and are recovering.”
Mr. Seagal, a retired actor most famous for his line of Hollywood action films, was granted Russian citizenship in 2017.
Shortly after Russia invaded Ukraine, he expressed his support for Russian president Vladimir Putin and his allies at a dinner for his 70th birthday in Moscow.
Last year, Putin bestowed a top state award on Seagal to reward him for his “international humanitarian and cultural work”.
He also joined a pro-Kremlin party in 2021, and visited a Russian-controlled part of eastern Ukraine last summer, where he met with a Russian-backed separatist leader.
