Law enforcement agencies in the North Caucasus reported stopping the illegal education of more than 400 children in religious institutions. In 2025, the Ministry of Internal Affairs suspended or terminated the activities of 15 such educational institutions.

Eid al-Fitr, one of the key Islamic holidays that concludes Ramadan, will begin on the night of March 19-20. Most republics of the North Caucasus Federal District have declared the holiday non-working.

In honor of the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr, March 19, 20, and 21 have been declared days off in Ingushetia. According to the head of the republic, Makhmud-Ali Klimatov, this decision was made to mark the end of the holy month of Ramadan, which began on February 17.

Three additional days off – March 19, 20, and 21 – will be granted to residents of the Chechen Republic to celebrate Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan. The decision was made based on an appeal from the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Chechnya.
