In Quarter 1 of 2019, in Chechnya, three people fell victim to armed conflict

From January 1 to March 31, 2019, at least three persons fell victim to the armed conflict in Chechnya: one perished and two were wounded. These are the results of the calculations run by the "Caucasian Knot" based on its own materials and information from other open sources.

All the victims were in January. As a result of the attack on the road-and-post police post in Sernovodsk, an alleged participant in the armed underground was killed, and two policemen were wounded. There were no victims in February and March.

In Quarter 1 of 2018 in Chechnya, eight people fell victim to the armed conflict, seven of them perished and one was wounded.

The above statistics does not present accurately, with 100% precision, the real number of victims. Not all the data gets into news bulletins.

In 2016, in Chechnya, at least 43 people fell victim to the ongoing armed conflict in Northern Caucasus: at least 27 persons were killed, and 16 others were wounded.
