Clash between Ossetians and Ingush in North Ossetia
On November 15, on the outskirts of the village of Dachnoe, in the Prigorodny District of North Ossetia, another fight took place. This is the third conflict since November 4 with the participation of Ossetians and Ingush in the area of compact residence of people of two nationalities.
The conflict did not entail serious consequences: both sides announced to the arriving policemen that they had no complaints against each other, and the quarrel was due to minor disagreements, an unnamed source in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of North Ossetia stressed.
“Three Ossetians were couriers and delivered the parcel to the Ingush in the settlement of Yandievo, because of a banal misunderstanding of the parties on the nuances of the parcel delivery, a fight broke out, as a result of which all four people were injured,” Ingush.info stated.
The suburban police department has appointed an inspection, according to the results of which a decision will be made in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation, writes the North Ossetian newspaper Osnova.
One of the participants in the fight was taken to the hospital. The victim's father promised to file a report with the police.
The first incident occurred in the village Dachny on November 4, where Ossetians and Ingush also fought. In response, the deputies of the People's Assembly of Ingushetia announced their intention to apply to the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs with a request to organise joint patrols of Ingush and North Ossetian law enforcement officers in the Prigorodny District to prevent conflicts between people of the two nationalities.
The next incident took place on the evening of November 10 on the outskirts of Vladikavkaz. The verbal skirmish between groups of young people of Ossetian and Ingush nationality turned into a fight, during which traumatic weapons were used. As a result, four people were injured on both sides. The Ministry of Internal Affairs opened a criminal case under the article "Hooliganism with the use of weapons."
