In the village of Kidero, Tsuntinsky District of Dagestan, a mudflow descended on the evening of April 21, writes Kommersant

According to preliminary reports, there are no casualties or damage, but a mudslide has cut off access to the district hospital.

As a reminder, dozens of road sections in Dagestan were closed after floods, landslides, and, in mountainous areas, after avalanches and snowstorms. On April 18, residents of 15 settlements were left without transportation: six in the Tlyaratinsky District, six in the Dakhadaevsky District, two in the Tsumadinsky District, and one in the Kazbekovsky District.

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 disaster, according to the "Caucasian Knot" report "Spring flooding in the North Caucasus-2026".

The Institute of Geography of the Russian Academy of Sciences linked the floods in Dagestan to a combination of natural processes and anthropogenic impacts, which exacerbate the scale of natural disasters. Dagestani analysts interviewed by the "Caucasian Knot" also named ill-considered development, natural factors, and the deplorable state of hydraulic structures among the reasons for the devastating flood.

The "Caucasian Knot" has compiled materials on flooding in the republics of the North Caucasus Federal District in the spring of 2026 on the thematic page "Flooding in the North Caucasus".
