Ingushetia to form a sabotage and reconnaissance battalion for war against Ukraine

In Ingushetia, it is planned to create a sabotage and reconnaissance battalion called "Erzi", which will be part of the Cossack brigade "Terek" and will participate in military operations on the territory of Ukraine. This was reported by the Telegram channel of the government of Ingushetia.

The initiator of the formation of "Erzi" was the presidential envoy to the North Caucasus Federal District Yuri Chaika, and his idea was supported by the former head of Ingushetia Yunus-Bek Yevkurov and the current head of the republic Makhmud-Ali Kalimatov. At the same time, no official statements have yet been received from Kalimatov and Yevkurov regarding the creation of this unit.
