According to the FSB, the detainees spread false information that a plane from Israel had arrived at the airport and called on local residents to protest against it at the airport.
One of the alleged provocateurs reported that information about the organization of the unrest was actively disseminated on WhatsApp by a group called “Anti-Semites”, whose members negatively discussed the arrival of Israeli citizens.
The man added that he was invited to a meeting with law enforcement on October 31, where they explained to him that the planned actions were illegal. Security forces also stated that Magas Airport does not accept international flights, so the plane coming from Israel technically cannot arrive in Ingushetia.
The FSB also added that the organizers of the riots often make calls when they are in other regions.
