Islamists seize prison in Volgograd
Several Islamist inmates at a maximum-security prison (IK-19) in the Volgograd region of Russia have seized several guards, killing at least one of them. According to TASS, the takeover occurred during a disciplinary commission meeting. At least three inmates were involved in the attack. In video footage shared by the inmates, three people appear to have been killed, and one person has been taken hostage (reportedly the prison warden).
The inmates are armed with knives and refer to themselves as "mujahideen of the Islamic State." It is not yet clear what their demands are. A similar situation occurred a month ago in a prison in Rostov, where Islamist inmates also staged a takeover.

" И мышь огрызается, когда ее загоняют в угол..." Deutsche Welle: В октябре 2021 года правозащитная организация Gulagu.net получила 40 Гб видео и фото с пытками в российских колониях и изоляторах. Как следует из них, осужденных регулярно избивали и насиловали в пенитенциарных учреждениях в десятках регионов. Проект Гулагу.нет опубликовал новое видеосвидетельство, подтверждающее пытки ... Новые видеосвидетельства пыток заключённых в российских колониях. ........................ В етом мире нет честных и безпристрастных информ агенств! Мусульманина можно сжечь, пытать, убить и ето абсолютно Норма, но если мусульманин дает ответ насильнику и убийце то его клеймят "исламистом"! как вам не стыдно, журналюги!
