Idris Israilov, a native of Chechnya, has been appointed chairman of the garrison military court in the Russian-controlled part of the Zaporizhzhia region. His appointment was formalized by a decree from Vladimir Putin on October 12, according to the Chechen state news agency Grozny-Inform.
The republics of the North Caucasus topped the list of regions with the lowest housing rental affordability. In Kabardino-Balkaria and Chechnya, only 16.2% of families with two children can afford to rent a typical two-room apartment. These are the data from a RIA Novosti study.
In Dagestan, only 19.1% of families can afford to rent a typical two-room apartment, in Ingushetia, 20.3%, and in North Ossetia, 24.7%. In Karachay-Cherkessia, the figure is 27.8%. The deplorable situation is due to the low incomes of residents of the North Caucasus Federal District.
The leaders in housing rental affordability are the northern regions with high incomes: Yamal (71.2%), Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug (69%), and Magadan Oblast (65%).
In 2024, rental affordability across the Russian Federation has decreased: only slightly more than 46% of families can rent housing, which is lower than last year's figure (more than 50%). The main reasons are rising rental rates and poverty.
