The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, said that 23 fighters were killed, 58 more were wounded, four of them were seriously injured during the strike of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on a Chechen base in the Kherson region. He posted a message on the Telegram channel.
Kadyrov expressed condolences to the families of the victims and noted that there were heavy losses that day, but the Chechens "are participating in jihad, fighting against the forces of Iblis." He promised to take revenge and "destroy mercilessly" Ukrainian fighters. At the same time, the head of Chechnya claims that on the same day the fighters destroyed "about 70 Bandera". This information has not been officially confirmed.
Kadyrov promised to help the families of the victims and recalled that the authorities are allocating 1 million rubles for the funeral of fighters, another 12 million are paid by the state. Wounded soldiers receive three million rubles.
“In addition, for the families of the victims, we provide a pilgrimage to the holy Mecca. We are indebted to the mothers who gave the people such sons!”
The head of Chechnya also claims that weapon skills are “the duty of a Muslim” and encourages Chechens to enroll in military training courses:
“Even the Prophet Muhammad urged us to learn the art of shooting. This is Sunnah. In Gudermes we have the most modern base with free military training courses. Nothing prevents those who wish to come there and master the skills of military craft. This will be beneficial for you, for the entire Ummah and for the Fatherland as a whole. In any case, with or without you, we will finish off this evil spirits, but are you not ashamed yourself?
