Picket demanding to free Ingush activists held in Germany

On Saturday, November 2, the German city of Hamburg hosted a picket, held by members of the local Ingush Diaspora. They spoke about the tragic historical events in Russia related to Ingushes, as well as about the activists arrested in Ingushetia.

The picket was dedicated to the victims of the 1992 Ossetian-Ingush conflict, and the deportation of Ingushes in 1944, as well as to the activists, arrested after mass protests against the Chechen-Ingush border agreement, "The Magas Times" reports on its Instagram.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that actions in memory of the victims of the 1992 Ossetian-Ingush conflict are held annually in Nazran on October 30. This year, the participants in the mourning rally expressed their dissatisfaction with the fact that they failed to give the floor to conflict victims.
