Derbent, Dagestan, June 23, 2024, 21:58 - IA Regnum. Archpriest Nikolai Kotelnikov, killed in Dagestan, became the seventh priest to die in Russia at the hands of Wahhabis, Islamic scholar Roman Silantiev, who knew the deceased priest well,reported on the Telegram channel “ Tsennosti.RF ”
“Father Nikolai served all his life in Derbent, was one of the pillars of first the Baku and then the Makhachkala diocese. He was repeatedly threatened with death, and so he suffered martyrdom on the Day of the Holy Trinity,” he said.
Silantiev recalled that over the past few years, four Orthodox churches have already been attacked in Dagestan. He called for strengthening the fight against Wahhabi terrorists in Dagestan.
“After a very lenient punishment following the pogrom at the Makhachkala airport, they apparently felt their impunity, but even then it was necessary to put pressure on them using the harshest methods, and not try to justify their actions,” says the Islamic scholar.
In his opinion, the time has come to radically reconsider the approach to this problem in Dagestan and put the most tough and uncompromising people in key positions in this republic.
As reported by IA Regnum, on the evening of June 23 in Derbent, unknown persons fired at a church and a synagogue. The perpetrators fled the crime scene and are being sought.
