Two emergencies took place in parallel last night in the territory of Ingushetia. A militia post was shelled in a suburb of Nazran and two children were wounded by an explosion. An apartment of a Russian family was set on fire in Malgobek.

The incident at the Ekazhevo settlement took place on September 14 at about 10:00 p.m. Unknown persons shelled the militia post located on the "Kavkaz" Federal Highway in the suburb of Nazran, the so-called Ekazhevo Circle, from the side of the settlement from tube grenade launchers and automatic firearms.

As a result of the attack, the post was not damaged; however, a shell got into the adjacent dwelling area and wounded two children, a boy and a girl.

On the same night unknown persons set a Russian family's apartment on fire in Malgobek. They threw a frangible hand grenade into the flat of the Pleshakovs family. None of the tenants was harmed.
