Six fighters from Dagestan were killed in the SVO zone.
Arslanbek Arslanaliyev, Abakar Idrisov, and four other fighters from the Kayakent district were killed in a military operation in Ukraine. Since its beginning, at least 2215 fighters from Dagestan have been officially recognized as killed.
As reported by "Caucasian Knot", as of today, authorities and security forces have recognized at least 2209 fighters from Dagestan as killed in the military operation in Ukraine.
Arslanbek Arslanaliyev, Abakar Idrisov from the village of Pervomayskoye, Magomed-Mukhtar Aigumov from the village of Utamysh, Ramazan Abdullayev from the village of Gerga, Arsen Kaflanov from the village of Druzhba, Elbrus Guseynov from the village of Kayakent were killed in the military operation in Ukraine, reported the administration of the Kayakent district on its Telegram channel, reporting on the transfer of posthumous awards to the relatives of the killed fighters.
Thus, at least 2214 fighters from Dagestan have been officially recognized as killed in the military operation. "Caucasian Knot" maintains a list of names of natives from the SKFO and YFO killed in the military operation. The list is compiled based on data officially announced by representatives of the authorities and security agencies, according to the report of "Caucasian Knot" "SVO Statistics: Losses for Southern Russia are Growing".
In September, the authorities of the Kayakent district reported that Iramazan Rabazanov was killed in the SVO zone.
Dagestan ranks first among the regions of the SKFO and YFO in the number of killed in the military operation whose names have been officially disclosed by the authorities. In February 2022, Sergey Melikov, who was then the head of Dagestan, was the first among the representatives of the authorities to report that a Russian military officer, Nurmagomed Gadzhimagomedov, was killed in Ukraine.
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 of "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 the military enlistment office inquired about the progress of the search without providing any assistance.
