Three militaries perished in special operation in Dagestan
In the course of special actions aimed to neutralize suspected militants, which were resumed today in the morning in the Karabudakhkent District of Dagestan, three soldiers of the MIA's internal troops were lost, and seven more were wounded.
Earlier, the "Caucasian Knot" reported that yesterday, on April 11, in this territory, to the south of Gubden village, the counterterrorist operation (CTO) regime was introduced. In a large forest, a fight was on between a special UFSB subdivision for Dagestan and suspected militants. With the onset of darkness the active phase of the CTO was suspended, and today in the morning the special operation resumed.
"During the skirmish with the blocked group of militants three soldiers of internal troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation were lost. Besides, seven more militaries, including the platoon commander - the captain - were injured and hospitalized," the GZT.RU quotes the spokesman of the law enforcement bodies of the republic.
Currently, the search of suspected militants continues, the "Gazeta.Ru" writes.
Special agencies do not exclude that among the participants of the illegal armed formation there is also Magomedali Vagabov, who is in the federal and international search for participation in a number of terror acts and encroachments on life of law enforcers.
