On September 14, the Court of Appeals of Georgia began reviewing the case concerning the events of October 4, 2025, when participants in an opposition protest allegedly attempted to bring about a "peaceful transfer of power." The majority of those convicted in the case are opposition politicians.
We don’t need Chechens who surrendered to Ukrainian captivity. Surrendering is a disgrace for a Chechen, which can only be washed away with blood. This was reported by the deputy head of the Main Military-Political Directorate of the Russian Armed Forces, commander of the volunteer formation “Akhmat” Apti Alaudinov.
“Why do you think that someone should rescue you from captivity?” Alaudinov said. “I can rescue anyone from captivity, but not Chechens who voluntarily surrendered. They don’t exist for me. Keep them for yourself, and I don’t care what you do with them. I don’t consider myself responsible for them, because they have strayed from the sacred path.”
Alaudinov advised the Chechens to commit suicide: "Take a pen, a nail, attack someone and do everything to get killed. To end your life as men."
