Telman Mirzayev and Mukhtar Askenderov were killed in the fighting. Since the beginning of the military operation in Ukraine, at least 1,543 fighters from Dagestan have been officially recognized as killed.
As "Kavkazsky Uzel" wrote, by September 5, at least 1,541 fighters from Dagestan were officially recognized as killed in the military operation.
Telman Mirzayev was killed in the military operation in Ukraine, the administration of the Tabasaran district reported today in its Telegram channel, reporting on the transfer of the Order of Courage to his relatives.
Earlier, the district authorities reported that Mukhtar Askenderov was killed in the military operation in Ukraine. He completed his military service in 2002-2004 and was not associated with the army after that. In the fall of 2023, he voluntarily went to serve in the SVO zone. He participated in military operations on the territory of the LPR, and was killed on February 22, 2025. He was awarded the Order of Courage. He is survived by his wife and three children, another report says.
Thus, at least 1543 fighters from Dagestan have been officially recognized as killed in the military operation. "Caucasian Knot" maintains a list of names of natives of the North Caucasus Federal District and the Southern Federal District killed in the military operation. The list was compiled based on data officially announced by government officials and law enforcement agencies, according to the Caucasian Knot report "NVO statistics: losses are growing for the south of Russia".
State awards, memorial plaques and appearances on Channel One do not guarantee state support for the families of those killed, according to the Caucasian Knot report "Three comrades served: how the authorities are depriving the families of killed volunteers of benefits", which describes the stories of fighters from other regions.
