[REGNUM] State Duma deputy from Dagestan Khizri Abakarov estimated the damage at Makhachkala airport after the riots at 285 million rubles. He announced this on the evening of October 31, citing the ongoing calculation by appraisers.
The parliamentarian noted that a lot of effort and money were spent on the construction of the air harbor so that tourism could develop and Dagestanis could earn money.
“We invited experts to calculate how much the destruction cost. Today, the amount of calculated damage has already reached 285 million rubles, and the calculation is still underway,” he wrote in the Telegram channel.
In addition to criminal liability, protesters must compensate for the damage, the deputy added. According to Abakarov, they will also be added to the airport’s blacklist.
