In Dagestan, residents blocked the highway again

In anticipation of water and electricity, which are still missing, more than 200 residents of Dagestan took to the Astrakhan-Makhachkala federal highway. As a result, the Interior Ministry was forced to suspend traffic for 470 km.

More than 50 police officers separated and dispersed the crowd. The leadership of the Department of Internal Affairs of Makhachkala and officials of the local administration left for the place of the conflict.

Recall that on August 12 in Makhachkala, residents also blocked traffic on Magomed Gadzhiev Street due to regular power outages. After that, the Prosecutor General's Office promised to deal with the massive power outage in Dagestan.
