As a reminder, floods caused by torrential rains began in the North Caucasus in late March and have become some of the most destructive in recent years. Dagestan and Chechnya suffered the most from the natural disaster, according to the Caucasian Knot report "Spring Flooding in the North Caucasus - 2026".
In Dagestan, approximately 1.5 million residents were caught in the devastating flood zone. Six residents of the republic, including three minors, died as a result of the flooding.
