A conflict is brewing between interior troops special forces and their Chechen colleagues.
The Special Forces troops claim that the Chechen Sever battalion, made up of local residents, betrayed them during a special operation against Chechen separatists in February.
They claim that Sever fighters gave away the positions of the troops, passed on ammunition and equipment to the separatists, removed the bodies from the battlefield and shot at the Special Forces troops, Moskovsky Komsomolets reported.
Members of Sever group yelled “Allah-Akhbar” thus giving away the unit’s position and did not shoot at the militants, the daily wrote.
Moreover, examination of the wounded and killed Special Forces operatives showed that they were shot from weapons used by Sever members.
A criminal case was open to investigate the reports of the troops, but it was dropped. The paper filed a request for investigation to the Prosecutor’s Office.

To be more precise,it´s a conflict between Kadyrov and his Kadyrovites-militias vs the russian army!!! They never liked each other
Let’s all hope that the Russian army defeats Kadyrov and puts him on trial. In fact, that should be Medvedev’s policy from now on: to change Chechen presidents every 4 or 5 years and throw them in prison after that.

As opposed to blowing them up as usual. (Officially and not.)
This is precisely how the Americans were going to do it during the Georgian conflict, too bad they’re allready suffering failures in Afghanistan and Iraq, where suicide bombers act against the “American Democracy” of enslavement. Take away the Russian businessman in charge of military and put a general there, or at least someone warlike, best of all Zhirinovsky, he’ll show you who’s the boss, no Georgians will ever step in as they did in 2008.
Georgians have been repressed for centuries by Persians and Turks, they asked Russia to absorb it into it’s empire for protection, they’ve been industrialized and rebuilt and now they are spitting in the very same direction.

LA RUSSOPHOBE RESPONDS:
Why do Russian farmers dress like soldiers? Do babies dress that way in Russia too?
Thanks for telling us what an aggressive country Russia is. It’s news to us, we didn’t know.
