During the week from February 12 to 18, 2024, during the ongoing armed conflict in Northern Caucasus, four persons were shot dead: three alleged militants were killed and a policeman was wounded. These are the results of the calculations run by the "Caucasian Knot" based on its own materials and information from other open sources.

On February 14, in the village of Stary Achkhoi, Achkhoi-Martan District of Chechnya, three men shelled a policeman and were shot dead by return fire. Investigators reported one wounded policeman. This information was later confirmed by Ramzan Kadyrov, who also reported the detention of two members of the grouping that had planned attacks on law enforcers.
