In Damascus, Syrian citizen Ihab Balan, a freelance correspondent of the Chechen State TV and Radio Company (GTRK) "Grozny", was killed by an "intentional shot," reported Ramzan Kadyrov, the leader of Chechnya.

According to the leader of Chechnya, the journalist cooperated with the Akhmat-Khadji Kadyrov Regional Public Foundation. The Ihab Balan's family members will get financial aid from the Foundation.
