A soldier from Dagestan was killed in the special military operation zone.
Visirpasha Abdusalamov from Khasavyurt was killed in combat. Since the beginning of the military operation in Ukraine, at least 2046 fighters from Dagestan have been officially recognized as killed.
As reported by "Caucasian Knot", by July 24, officials and law enforcement agencies officially named the names of at least 2045 killed fighters from Dagestan in the military operation in Ukraine.
The administration of Khasavyurt reported on Telegram about the transfer of the Order of Courage to the family of Visirpasha Abdusalamov - a serviceman who was killed during the special military operation.
The head of the city, Korgoli Korgoliev, handed the award to the relatives of the killed fighter. The administration did not provide details about the biography and death of the serviceman in the message.
Thus, at least 2046 fighters from Dagestan have been officially recognized as killed on the Ukrainian front. "Caucasian Knot" maintains a named list of natives from the North Caucasus Federal District and Southern Federal District who have been killed in the military operation. The list is compiled based on data officially announced by representatives of the authorities and law enforcement agencies, according to the report from "Caucasian Knot" "Statistics of the special military operation: losses are increasing for southern Russia".
In mid-July, the administration of Khasavyurt reported that Alimur Shakhsayev was killed in Ukraine.
Dagestan ranks first among the regions of the North Caucasus Federal District in the number of killed whose names have been officially disclosed by the authorities. Sergey Melikov, who headed Dagestan in February 2022, was the first among the representatives of the authorities to announce that a Russian soldier had been killed in Ukraine, acknowledging the death of officer Nurmagomed Gadzhimagomedov.
State awards, memorial plaques, and appearances on "Channel One" do not guarantee support from the state for the families of the killed, according to the material from "Caucasian Knot" "Three comrades served: how the authorities deprive the families of killed volunteers of benefits", which describes the stories of killed fighters. In particular, the widow of one of the killed recounted that without the body, the battalion did not make payments related to the death of the serviceman.
