[Regnum] A ceremony for the reburial of the remains of 25 soldiers from the Great Patriotic War took place in Ingushetia. The event took place on May 4 in Malgobek. The remains of the soldiers were discovered during the spring stage of the Terek Frontier memorial watch. According to the head of Ingushetia, Makhmud-Ali Kalimatov, it took more than 80 years to return the names of these people, but now, thanks to search engines, they are known. He expressed gratitude to the project participants for their work aimed at preserving historical memory and the truth about the Great Patriotic War. “We will continue to make every effort to prevent our enemies from distorting the history of our great country and the important role that our people played in the victory in the Great Patriotic War,” said Mahmud-Ali Kalimatov. Searchers from the Tersky Frontier memory watch, representing Ingushetia, Chechnya, Kabardino-Balkaria, North Ossetia, Astrakhan, Samara and the Stavropol Territory, participated in the excavations on a section of the Tersky Range in the Malgobek region. Since the beginning of April, in addition to the remains of Red Army soldiers, it was possible to discover a personal medallion and some other things of the soldiers. Mahmud-Ali Kalimatov recalled the words of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who called the search movement a unique phenomenon in Russian public life. “It managed to unite tens of thousands of those who took upon themselves a noble mission - these people, according to him, feel sincere love for their country and feel a personal responsibility for preserving the memory of historical events,” the head of the republic emphasized. The great respect with which burial sites are treated in Ingushetia is evidenced by a decree signed by the head of the republic in May. In accordance with it, the day of events aimed at the improvement and sanitary cleaning of cemeteries in the region is determined. According to the decree of Mahmud-Ali Kalimatov, every year, on the first Saturday of May, collective events will be held throughout Ingushetia to clean up mass graves. Respect for burials also applies to memorial complexes. So, in particular, in 2023, the process of reconstruction of the GIoazot Kashmash memorial in Nazran began. The reconstruction began with the support of the Safmar charitable foundation and its founder, businessman and philanthropist Mikhail Gutseriev. The reconstruction of all cemeteries in Ingushetia was also launched. The entrepreneur allocated significant funds for these purposes. In 2023, 25 Muslim cemeteries and five Orthodox cemeteries were reconstructed on the territory of the republic. Reconstruction continues this year - it is planned to overhaul 39 Muslim and four Orthodox cemeteries. |
