...a formerly inoffensive Caucasus republic currently bedevilled by low-level Islamic insurgency, occasional outbreaks of separatism, ethnic tensions and terrorism, primarily due to its proximity to Chechnya. There are several dozen ethnic groups, most of which speak either Caucasian, Turkic, or Iranian languages. Largest among these ethnic groups are the Avar, Dargin, Kumyk, Lezgin, and Laks. While Russers form less than five percent of the population, Russian remains the primary official language and the lingua franca...
has announced the death of 6 holy warriors that were preparing to carry out attacks on security and police personnel in Dagestan.
"As part of an anti-terrorist operation in the Khasavyurt region of Dagestan, information was received about a group of armed criminals consisting of 6 individuals, in a forest north of the village of Goksov, intending to commit terrorist crimes," the National Counter-Terrorism Committee of Dagestan said.
"When attempting to arrest them, the criminals showed resistance by using automatic weapons and grenades, so they were all eliminated," the statement said.
According to available information, this gang was linked to ISIS and coordinated its activities with this organization.
