According to a resident of Nyutyug, early in the morning on February 17, the village was invaded by a large number of soldiers.

"They came into every house, checked residents' passports and recorded telephone numbers. They behaved quite adequately. All this continued until 9 a.m. Then, they left," the man told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.

For the whole day on February 17, as he said, gunfire and explosions were heard in the village.

Today, he added, "the situation is calm, shots are not heard" and "village lives as usual, children go to school."
