At least three alleged militants were killed, a duty officer at the southern Russian district office of the Interior Ministry said. He said that the fighting began after police in Nalchik received an anonymous telephoned tip that a group of about 10 armed militants had entered the city, and police and security forces launched a special operation to capture them.
A policeman was wounded in the fighting, said Marina Kyasova, a spokesman for the Kabardino-Balkariya regional office of the ministry.
Intense shooting from automatic rifles and grenade-launchers could be heard in the center of the city. The North Caucasus department on fighting terrorism and city police unit No. 2 are located behind School No. 5.
The Interfax news agency reported that gunmen had launched simultaneous attacks on the regional headquarters of the Interior Ministry and the Federal Security Service, as well as a number of other buildings.
Citing an unidentified source in law enforcement, Interfax said that the battle was sparked by the detention of a group of adherents to the radical Wahhabi strain of Islam, and that their fellow believers were trying to free them.
From clarity & resolve:
About 60 people have been shot dead in gun battles between police and suspected Chechen rebels around a school and airport in southern Russia.
President Putin has said that "not one gunman" should escape the town.
The attacks began this morning when up to 100 rebel fighter attacked police and army buildings in the town of Nalchik.
Chechen rebels have claimed on a web site that they were behind the attacks in the main town of the Muslim Kabardino-Balkaria region near Chechnya.
Most of the victims are reported to have been rebels, though 12 people living in the town of Nalchik are said to have been killed.
The gunmen also stormed a police station and took hostages, Dmitry Kozak, the Kremlin envoy to southern Russia, told state television. But he added that overall the town was under control. ...
The shooting began this morning in a suburb before moving to a school and airport as well as several other districts.
**Here we go again, the Islamonazi untermenchen cant get their own way so rather than talk its "Allah this", "jihad" the other. You can always spot a savage when they reach for the gun first. Here's hoping the Russians get them with as few innocent bystanders injured as possible. However we do have some good news that one piece of Islamofascist leader was killed, and will soon be flushed down the sewer to float with the other koranimals:
Anyone who thinks we can deal with the savages who cut the throats and behead anyone who trys to speak out against them is living in a dream world. Oh and the first person who says its just an extremist minority/they are mis understood/hijacking the religion of peace etc, is invited to fuck themselves with a bargepole.
Russia’s most-wanted Chechen terrorist Shamil Basayev was killed by Russian forces in Thursday’s firefight in the Kabardino-Balkarian capital Nalchik, a source in the local branch of the FSB (the Federal Security Service) told the Chechen Society newspaper. Officials are remaining silent until a full identification procedure has been completed.
Finally a question? Dr Yusuf al-Qaradawi stated that the Asian Tsunami, was a punishment from Allah, and I quote his words here? "People must ask themselves why this earthquake occurred in this area and not in others. Whoever examines these areas discovers that they are tourism areas . . . where the forbidden acts are widespread, as well as alcohol consumption, drug use and acts of abominations."
Does he consider the earthquake in Pakistan to be "a punishment"?
