Village of Kvanada faces special operation for the second time in 2016

In Dagestan, the counterterrorist operation (CTO) carried out in the village of Kvanada in the Tsumada District has become the second one held in the village in 2016. Earlier, when CTO legal regime had been introduced in the village, Magomed Abdulkhalikov was killed there. Law enforcers treated him as the leader of the "Tsumada" militant grouping. The territory of the Kvanada village is the home for 1500 people.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on October 21, the CTO legal regime was introduced in the village of Kvanada, and two persons were killed. According to the law enforcement bodies, the killed suspects were members of the "Tsumada" militant grouping since 2014.

In 2016, the first special operation was carried out in Kvanada in January. On January 11, a shootout occurred there, in which Magomed Abdulkhalikov was killed. In 2014, he was out on the federal wanted list and was considered the leader of the "Tsumada" militants.

Let us remind you that on October 21, a shootout also occurred in the village of Stalskoe of the Kizilyurt District, where two persons were killed. Although the districts have no common border, they have been earlier mentioned together in connection with the special operation carried out in the republic. Thus, in February 2016, in the Kizilyurt District, a man was killed, who was recognized as a member of the armed underground. The killed suspect was a native of the Tsumada District.
