Russian law enforcement agents in the North Caucasus republic of Kabardino-Balkaria killed two armed militants during a counterterrorism operation, the National Anti-Terrorism Committee (NAC) said Thursday. A firefight erupted between “members of a gang that is part of an international terrorist organization who were planning to commit a number of acts of sabotage and terrorism” outside the regional capital of Nalchik, the NAC said in a statement. “Two bandits were neutralized as a result of the counterterrorist operation,” the law enforcement agency added, describing the gun battle as a “brief exchange of fire.” A video released by the NAC showed Federal Security Service (FSB) agents inside a military vehicle firing toward a two-story home in a remote rural area in the pre-dawn hours.
