| Could be Caucasus Emirate/ISIS or Hizb-ut-Tahrir, could be support for Ukraine, could be something else altogether. The article does not even hint, and I can’t find anything illuminating on the internet. This article from 11/23/2023 is the only thing in the Rantburg archives that might possibly be related to the current story. |
As the "Caucasian Knot" reported, on March 5 it became known that the investigative authorities of Ingushetia opened a criminal case against three people for aiding members of a terrorist organization and storing weapons.
Charges of aiding terrorists (Part 5 of Article 33, Part 2 of Article 205.5 of the Criminal Code of Russia), illegal trafficking in explosive devices (Part 3 of Article 222.1 of the Criminal Code of Russia) and firearms (Part 3 of Article 222 of the Criminal Code of Russia) were brought against three residents of Ingushetia, it reported today the Russian Investigative Committee for Ingushetia.
According to investigators, in November 2023, the accused, aged 26, 28 and 33 years old, on behalf of a member of a terrorist organization who was wanted for committing crimes of a terrorist nature, purchased automatic firearms and ammunition and stored them for subsequent transfer to members of the terrorist organization. The court, at the request of the investigator, chose a preventive measure against the accused in the form of detention, the department said in a statement.
Let us remind you that on March 3, during the counter-terrorism operation (CTO) in Karabulak, security forces killed six suspected militants. On March 5, sources reported that Amirkhan Gurazhev, Zelimkhan Tsuroev, Magomed Barkinkhoev, Tagir Tsuroev, Mikail Tutaev and Bers Chemurziev were killed. No losses among security forces were officially reported; according to Kommersant, five FSB officers were injured during the counter-terrorism operation in Karabulak.
On the evening of March 2, a counter-terrorist operation regime was introduced in one of the blocks in the center of Karabulak. The National Anti-Terrorism Committee (NAC) reported that the militants, while trying to detain them, opened fire on the security forces, a shootout ensued, and residents of nearby houses were evacuated. On March 3, NAC announced that six Islamic State militants were killed in the shootout, three of whom were on the federal wanted list. The "Caucasian Knot" has prepared a report " How the special operation took place in Karabulak."
