[Regnum] In the North Caucasus in 2024, 27 members of illegal armed groups were neutralized. This was announced on March 5 by the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation Vladimir Kolokoltsev.

"Considerable attention was paid to the North Caucasus region. As a result of events carried out jointly with the Federal Security Service and the Russian National Guard, 27 active participants in illegal armed groups were neutralized last year," he said at an extended meeting of the department's board.

The minister added that another 135 members of illegal armed groups were detained.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, on the night of March 5, a counter-terrorist operation (CTO) regime was declared in the village of Semender in Makhachkala. Security forces neutralized four armed bandits who were planning a terrorist attack on the regional police department facility in Kaspiysk. The criminals resisted law enforcement officers.

At the site of the armed clash with the militants and in a nearby cache, security forces discovered homemade bombs, grenades, and automatic firearms.

On March 5, Dagestan's head Sergei Melikov said he considered the militant attack in Makhachkala a failed attempt to destabilize the region. He specified that the gang's activities were coordinated by members of the Islamic State group (a terrorist organization banned in Russia). No security forces or civilians were hurt.

30 people planning terrorist attack detained in Kyrgyzstan

In Kyrgyzstan, operatives detained 30 members of a terrorist organization who were planning to commit terrorist attacks. This was reported on March 5 by the AKIPress publication, citing the State Committee for National Security (SCNS) of the republic.



“On February 27, State Committee for National Security officers detained 30 supporters of an underground terrorist cell, whose activities were coordinated by foreign centers of an international terrorist organization,” the article says.

It is noted that terrorist acts were planned against officials, employees of special services and law enforcement agencies. In addition, according to the publication, the detainees held meetings at which they promoted radical ideology and also collected money to finance terrorism. One of the suspects was also found to have a video instruction on how to make a homemade explosive device.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, earlier that day, a group of four militants was neutralized during a counter-terrorist operation in Dagestan. It was noted that the terrorists were planning to commit a terrorist act at a facility of the regional department of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs in Kaspiysk. The attackers resisted and opened fire on traffic police officers.

Because of this, a counter-terrorist operation (CTO) regime was declared in the village of Semender in Makhachkala. The operational headquarters in Dagestan also asked residents to be vigilant and provide comprehensive support to law enforcement agencies in the fight against extremism and terrorism.
