Ingushetia: two DPS servicemen lost in shelling

Today, at about 6:00 p.m. Moscow time, in the suburb of the municipal district Alkievskiy of Nazran, in Nazran-Karabulak Highway, a DPS (Road and Post Service) car with three STSI (State Traffic Safety Inspectorate, known in Russia as "GIBDD") inspectors of the Ingush MIA inside was shelled. Two inspectors died.

This is the second today's case in Ingushetia. The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that in the morning another GIBDD inspector was wounded by a car explosion. Doctors assess his health condition as medium gravity. The explosion was triggered in Nazran, near No. 25 in Moskovskaya Street, when militiaman Zaur Albogachiev was getting into his VAZ-2107 car.

Later, at shelling in the Nazran-Karabulak Highway, the DPS inspectors received heavy wounds and died on the way to hospital, as the republic's MIA has reported.

The attackers were in a silver "Lada-Priora" car; now the place of the incident is studied by an investigatory group, the ITAR-TASS reports.

The "Interfax" adds that the third GIBDD inspector is in hospital in grave condition.
