Attacks on police in Russia’s Astrakhan by Islamic radicals
On Wednesday, a group identified as Islamic radicals by Astrakhan authorities killed two traffic policemen in the southern Russian city. Three Russian Guards were wounded in Astrakhan overnight, while four assailants were killed.
The Amaq news agency, an outlet linked to Daesh, reported the deaths of police officers and the attack on servicemen, leading SITE Intelligence Group, a non-profit tracking extremist organizations, to assume the group had taken responsibility for both attacks. SITEs take on the event was then picked up by other media.
