Additional notes
It is unclear how many were detained at each site, therefore the figures have been divided equally. The men were reportedly members of an unspecified international terrorist organisation and planned to attack law enforcement personnel and the Protection of Our Holy Lady church (церковь Покрова Пресвятой Богородицы) in Sunzha. An improvised explosive device, components, electronic devices were all seized.
