Despite this, on June 23, the largest terrorist attacks in the North Caucasus in recent years occurred in Makhachkala and Derbent. The Cheka-OGPU wrote on June 11 about how the special services work in the region: Oleg Grinev, a high-ranking employee of the Russian FSB Directorate for Moscow and the Moscow Region, who regularly came to Dagestan on business trips, received five years for failing to prosecute the son-in-law of the ex-mayor of Kaspiysk, Jamaludin Omarov, in exchange for 40 million rubles.

Against this background, the notorious “Ukrainian trace,” to which in recent years in Russia it has been customary to attribute all large-scale tragedies, will be even more difficult to find in Dagestan than in Crocus. Perhaps that is why this version has not yet been heard at the official level.
