INGUSHETIA
VLADIKAVKAZ, Russia — Assailants armed
with grenade- and rocket-launchers seized the
Interior Ministry headquarters in Ingushetia, a
Russian region bordering warring Chechnya, killing
the acting minister, a ministry official
said Tuesday. Attacks were also
reported elsewhere in Ingushetia.
The Interior Ministry official
said it was not immediately clear
who the attackers were, but said
some of them were shouting
“Allahu akhbar" — a frequent cry
of Chechnya’s separatist rebels as
their insurgency increasingly
comes under the influence of radi
cal Islam.
Fighting from the 4-year-old
Chechen war has occasionally
spilled into Ingushetia, highlighting
the Russian military’s ineffective
ness against the rebels despite hav
ing heavier weapons and far superi
or manpower.
On Monday, the newspaper
Kommersant quoted Chechnya’s sep
aratist president Aslan Maskhadov as
saying that rebels were preparing to
undertake new tactics.
