According to source from Chechnya with the reference to the commander of Urus-Martan sector of Armed Forces of the Caucasus Emirate Amir Abdul-Malik, a fierce firefight took place between Chechen Mujahideen and Russian kafirs (infidels) and Chechen murtads (apostates) on November 26 in the district of the village of Horsenoi.

The European Court of Human Rights on Thursday found Russia responsible for the death of three Chechens during an armed raid in the restive province’s capital, and ordered Moscow to pay their relative €60,000 (US,428) in damages.

Amnesty International said on Wednesday Russian authorities were arresting and harassing critics such as opposition leader Garry Kasparov to silence them in the run-up to the December 2 parliamentary elections.
