Russia says Caucasus terrorist trained in Syria
[RFE/RL] One of three suspected militants killed in a recent North Caucasus clash in the was trained by "terrorists" in Syria, Russian officials said.

The militants were killed on December 22 in Kabardino-Balkaria, near Georgia, the national antiterrorist committee said. Troops had tried to stop a car for a routine check when the occupants opened fire, sparking a gun battle.

One of those killed was Nazir Tokhov, whom the committee said went to Syria for "terrorist training" before returning to Kabardino-Balkaria to form an armed group of former detainees and "perpetrate terrorist attacks in the North Caucasus."
