An accident involving six vehicles took place in Ingushetia, according to a report from TASS citing the region’s Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergencies. The incident was logged as a traffic collision on the R-217 Caucasus highway at kilometer 582, and rescue crews from the Karabulak search and rescue team 24 arrived to find six vehicles involved in a mass crash.
No injuries were reported, and authorities said the police are examining the causes and circumstances surrounding the multi-vehicle collision. The investigation will assess factors such as road conditions, driver actions, and other potential contributors to the incident.
The report also references a prior event in Smolensk where, after a confrontation, a minibus window on the driver’s side and a passenger exit side window were broken. Investigators will determine whether the assailant targeted the driver, the passengers, or other aspects of the incident as the case progresses.
In Cherkessk, the head of the local Azerbaijani diaspora organized a street gathering with friends, which led to a police-registered offense for disobedience to authorities, with case materials sent to the court for review.
Previous reports mention an incident in St. Petersburg where a taxi driver assaulted a pregnant woman and a young child, an event that drew separate attention from law enforcement and the public.
