The persons who have shot at and exploded the RF MoI transport column today are known and will be found, states the Ingushetia president Yunus-Bek Evkurov.
For reference, today, the shooting at the transport column with soldiers of the temporary operational group of RF MoI in Nazran district, Ingushetia, has resulted in two soldiers killed and four wounded.
"We know who has done it. This gang, these rascals are being hunted, they will be found and wiped out. No attack on Murmansk oblast MoI department officers may remain unpunished", says Evkurov.
He reports that he has already given the necessary instructions to minimize night movements of service transport facilities, except in performing operational actions, in order to secure their safety.
"The situation in the republic does not allow one to relax and requires maximum concentration of efforts from everyone, both from state authorities and the law enforcement structures", cites "Interfax" Evkurov's words.
