Russia: Rebels Killed in Chechnya Rebels Killed in Chechnya
(about 1 hour later)
Two of the most wanted Islamist rebels in Chechnya were among 14 people killed in a shootout between Russian forces and militants, the news agency Interfax said Thursday. The two men, Khuseyn and Muslim Gakayev, were brothers who have been accused of organizing several high-profile attacks. Insurgents seeking a separate Islamist state still stage regular attacks across the broader North Caucasus region more than a decade after Russia re-established federal control over Chechnya following two separatist wars.Two of the most wanted Islamist rebels in Chechnya were among 14 people killed in a shootout between Russian forces and militants, the news agency Interfax said Thursday.
