According to him, Russian President Vladimir Putin kept the course of the operation under personal control.
“It is symbolic that the last, decisive blow to the bandit underground, we struck with the direct participation of our president, who kept the course of the special operation under personal control,” Kadyrov wrote on his page on the VKontakte social network.
At the end of January, the commander of the special regiment, Zamid Chalaev, who was in charge of the operation, said that the militants from Aslan Byutukayev's gang, liquidated during a special operation in Chechnya, were planning to attack the building of the Federal Security Service (FSB) in Grozny.
On January 20, Kadyrov announced the elimination of six militants from Byutukaev's gang who were on the federal wanted list in the republic.
