Two soldiers from Kabardino-Balkaria were killed in Ukraine
Alim Kandokhov and Aslan Khuzhokov from the Urvansky district were killed in the SVO zone. Since the beginning of the special operation, at least 477 fighters from Kabardino-Balkaria have been officially recognized as killed.
As reported by "Caucasian Knot", by October 2, at least 475 fighters from Kabardino-Balkaria had been officially recognized as killed in the military operation in Ukraine.
The establishment of a memorial stand at Nartkalinskaya School No. 5, which lists the names of Alim Kandokhov and Aslan Khuzhokov, who were killed during the military operation, was reported by the newspaper "Kabardino-Balkarskaya Pravda", established by the parliament and government of the republic.
Details of the biographies and deaths of the soldiers are not provided in the publication.
Thus, at least 477 fighters from Kabardino-Balkaria have been officially recognized as killed in the military operation. "Caucasian Knot" maintains a named list of natives of the North Caucasus Federal District and Southern Federal District who were 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" "SVO Statistics: Losses in Southern Russia are Growing".
Earlier, news of the deaths of fighters from the Urvansky district became known in mid-December 2025. At that time, the authorities reported that in combat operations, Timur Tkhagalegov and Mukhamed Shachev were killed.
State awards, memorial plaques, and appearances on "Channel One" do not guarantee support from the state for the families of the killed, as stated in the material from "Caucasian Knot" "Three Comrades Served: How Authorities Deny Benefits to Families of Killed Volunteers", which describes the stories of the killed fighters. For instance, the mother of the killed Dmitry Ukhanov said that she searched for her son's body for four months, while officials from the administration and military enlistment office inquired about the progress of the search without providing any assistance.
