| News, Politics, North Caucasus

Recently, some media outlets reported that Ramzan Kadyrov had been urgently hospitalized in a hospital in Moscow, and his condition was assessed as serious. "It is known that the head of the region was urgently transported to Moscow just over a week ago. His sons and associates, including State Duma MP Adam Delimkhanov and Chairman of the Chechen Parliament Magomed Daudov, are with Kadyrov," the report added. According to the sources, Ramzan Kadyrov has serious kidney problems, and previously, he categorically refused to travel outside Chechnya for treatment.

On September 17, the head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, once again denied rumors about his illness and death. He published a video of him walking in the rain to the sound of azan [Adhan in English - Adhan is recited from the mosque five times daily, traditionally from the minaret].

"I highly advise everyone who on the Internet cannot distinguish truth from lies, take a walk in the fresh air, put your thoughts in order. Rain is wonderfully invigorating," Kadyrov noted. "It's raining beautifully, and you can hear the Koran being read. I walked 11 kilometers," the head of Chechnya added.
