| Russian officials and witnesses now say the death toll stands at 22 from attacks by heavily-armed insurgents in a region near the border with Chechnya. Dozens more were wounded in coordinated attacks on police headquarters, border checkpoints and government offices in Ingushetia. Officials say the attack by scores of insurgents happened shortly before midnight Monday. Witnesses say the attackers wore masks and spoke with accented Russian. It’s not clear if they were separatist rebels. |
