[KavkazUzel] Residents of Dagestan gathered in the center of Makhachkala for a rally in support of Palestine, but they were dispersed by security forces, as follows from videos posted online.

As the "Caucasian Knot" reported, collective readings of prayers for Palestinian Muslims, who are in danger after a sharp escalation of the situation in Israel, were held in mosques in Chechnya today . Fighting between Israel and the Palestinian Hamas movement began on October 7 with hundreds of rockets fired into Israeli territory.

The Israel Defense Forces responded by launching the military operation “Iron Swords” against Hamas, after which Israel announced a blockade of the Gaza Strip: supplies of water, food, electricity, medicine, and fuel were suspended. Thousands of people died on both sides .

Residents of Dagestan tried today to hold a rally in support of Palestine in the central square of Makhachkala near the government building of the republic, Telegram channels reported today.

Photos from the central square of Makhachkala were published today by the Gorets Telegram channel. The photo shows dozens of men gathered in the square near the Lenin monument. Police officers and police cars are also visible in the photographs. According to the channel, security forces did not allow the protest to take place.

In a short video published today by the Morning of Dagestan Telegram channel, dozens of men gathered in the square around the security forces, engaging in an emotional discussion with them. One of the residents asks why they cannot perform namaz here (in the square). From another video it follows that security forces were gathered in the square, in particular, there were at least two buses with security forces walking around with batons.

By 19.30 Moscow time, the website and Telegram channel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Makhachkala did not contain information about the dispersal of the action.

Earlier, the Jewish communities of the North Caucasus republics responded to Hamas' threats. Thus, in the Jewish communities of Makhachkala and Kizlyar, a number of events were canceled due to threats from Palestinian militants.

Residents of Chechnya performed prayers for Muslims in Palestine

Today, collective prayers were read in mosques in Chechnya for the Muslims of Palestine, who are in danger after a sharp escalation of the situation in Israel.

As the " Caucasian Knot " reported, hostilities between Israel and the Palestinian Hamas movement began on October 7 with the firing of hundreds of rockets into Israeli territory. The Israel Defense Forces responded by launching the military operation “Iron Swords” against Hamas, after which Israel announced a blockade of the Gaza Strip: supplies of water, food, electricity, medicine, and fuel were suspended. Thousands of people died on both sides.

Tahajjud prayer is an additional night prayer performed after sleep, according to the website Islam.ru.

Today, in the central mosque “Heart of Chechnya,” thousands of believers gathered to perform collective Tahajjud prayer, the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Chechnya reported in its telegram channel.

“Today at 04.25 am, Tahajjud prayers were held in the mosques of the republic,” confirmed the “Caucasian Knot” commentator jerrie.johns.

The Instagram public* “Emergency Grozny No. 1”, which supports the authorities of the republic, reported that such prayers will be held starting tonight in all major mosques in Chechnya.”

Earlier, the Mufti of the republic, Salah Mezhiev, called on local residents to gather for Tahajjud prayer for the Muslims of Palestine.

"All Muslims of the world are concerned about the fate of their brothers in Palestine, who have been subjected to severe injustice and cruelty. Our most important weapon is dua. If all Muslims turn to Allah, then our prayers will not remain unanswered. In this regard, and on the initiative of our leader Ramzan Kadyrov, I call on all residents of the republic – brothers and sisters – to gather for Tahajjud prayer,” the Grozny Inform news agency quoted Mezhiev as saying on October 16.

Let us recall that earlier the Jewish communities of the North Caucasus republics responded to the threats of Hamas. Thus, a number of events have been canceled in the Jewish communities of Makhachkala and Kizlyar due to threats from Palestinian militants. Enhanced security measures have been taken at the public Jewish cultural and educational organization "Sholom" in North Ossetia.
