Ramzan Kadyrov reported the destruction of three drones in Chechnya. He said one drone was shot down by Russian Aerospace Forces air defense forces over the territory of the neighboring republic, and two were shot down by mobile fire teams of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Russian National Guard directly over Chechnya.
The Russian authorities replace the concepts, calling wars different terms. «The war in Ukraine is called a "special military operation", - said Alexander Cherkasov, member of the CDI «Memorial». - The first war in Chechnya was described by the federal authorities as "the operation to disarm illegal gangs and restore constitutional order", and the second as a "counter-terrorism operation". The war with Georgia in 2008 is a "peace enforcement operation"».
In addition, even in Syria, the Russian army carried out a «military operation», the official name of which is «special tasks in the territory of the Syrian Arab Republic».
«Well, and in 2022, Russia launched a war in Ukraine, calling it a «special military operation», - Cherkasov added. He also noted that these substitutions did not in any way prevent the international courts from drawing legal conclusions with appropriate consequences.
