The Kremlin is reported to have lost control of the situation and is preparing for a war between the two republics.

Chechnya's leader Ramzan Kadyrov has announced a blood feud against three politicians from Russia's volatile North Caucasus region, sparking fears of a major interethnic conflict.

The North Caucasus is populated by a variety of different ethnic groups, the majority of whom are Muslim and who live in several republics – these include Chechnya, Dagestan and Ingushetia.

Relations between Chechnya and Dagestan have been tense for years over a land and border dispute, that is threatening to explode.

Chechnya's brutal dictator appeared to pour flames on simmering tensions between the two republics, when he announced a blood feud on two politicians from Dagestan and one from Ingushetia.

In a televised meeting with senior officials, Kadyrov said: “I officially declare a blood feud against Bekhan Barakhoyev, Suleiman Kerimov and Rizvan Kurbanov."

Kerimov and Kurbanov are both originally from Dagestan, while Barakhoyev is from Ingushetia.

Kadyrov accuses the three politicians of ordering his assassination and also of seizing Russia's largest online retailer Wildberries from the estranged wife of Vladislav Bakalchuk.

The Chechen leader has vowed to help Bakalchuk get his wife back and to block the merger of their e-commerce giant with the advertising group Russ.

Anton Gerashchenko, a former adviser to Ukraine's Interior Ministry, said the conflict between Kerimov and Kadyrov was the most "serious" one in the last 10 years.

"There is a serious discussion in Russia that it could lead to a war between Chechens and Dagestanis," he wrote in a post to his X social media channel.

"A note from the Dagestan Interior Ministry said the blood conflict that the Chechen leader outlined today and accusations of organising his assassination are seriously destabilising the situation in the North Caucasus.

"According to political analysts close to the Kremlin, apparently Moscow is no longer able to extinguish or control this conflict.

"There are rumours that the National Guard of Russia and Interior Ministry forces will be redeployed to the North Caucasus, and it is also possible that army groups will be strengthened."

He added that Kadyrov may have to recall Akhmat units from Ukraine, as tensions threaten to escalate out of control.

    Kadyrov is the guy with the Tesla cyber truck mounted with a machine gun, wears ammo belts as standard garb, and has the overweight pussy son – right?

    Recall Akhmat from Ukraine? Don’t you mean from the basement? Anyone who is still alive filmed their TikTok’s and then fled behind the barrier troops or into Kursk. Whoops, do they recall them from Russia too? Kursk is not a sandwich

    Won’t happen but if it did it would be so fucking funny

    He took a look at what happened to the Wagner leadership and was like “ayo lemme get in on that”?

    Well, Wagner made it halfway to Moscow with little resistance, Don Don has a good chance! Go for it!

    I’ll believe when it starts happening. Remember when that Pringle (sorry, i genuinely can’t remember his name) guy was gonna do the same?

  6. Nothing will come of this. This dude is a coward filled with rot from the core. As soon as Putin takes away his lunch money, he will cry wolf and align.

  7. I wish so much for Russia to implode in stupid feudal wars between the warlords/leaders of kinda autonomous regions

  8. Good! Less Chechen soldiers in Ukraine, let Putin fight the Chechens. Seems like everyone who fights for Putin in Ukraine, eventually turns back to fight in Russia. Look what Yevgeny Prigozhin and Wagner group did. Was fighting for Putin in Ukraine, and turned back to try and take Moscow. Then Putin killed him off. Rinse, repeat. When will Russians learn that Putin just uses them as puppets.

  9. Now is a great time for them all to rise up and throw off the Russian yoke.
    Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Belarus, Georgia

    Putin’s probably behind it. He’s been considering Kadyrov replacements since Kadyrov was looking deathly over a year ago. Russia’s National Guard is probably going to Chechnya to speed up the process. Putin took one look at Adam Kadyrov, the 16yo fat kid suggested as successor, and knew he had to make other plans.

  11. “He added that Kadyrov may have to recall Akhmat units from Ukraine”

    Oh no, who’s going help Ukraine now? Aren’t they the tiktok plonkers who shoot the orcs in the back if they refuse to carry on “liberating”? Who are the orcs going to get to waste all that dud North Korean ammo? /s

    I hope Kadyrov’s blood enemies tear him a new one.

    Turn him with immunity, use his influence in Chechnya, maybe more, he can be Putin’s worse nightmare. There is a window, maybe a plane crash with his name on it, make haste, he’s useless dead.

  13. All smoke and mirrors if you ask me. Putin will find a way to appease the Chechen idiot with more money.

    I swear most men in power are actually children. They can grow beards but can’t grow to be mature developed humans

    I’d really love for this guy to actually start a war so Russia has to divert troops from Ukraine to this asshole, but from what I’ve seen of this guy and what he posts on social media he seems to be all bark and no bite.

  16. Available-Garbage932 on

    If Civil War breaks out in Russia, this is the area where I would expect it to begin.

  17. EddieSpaghettiFarts on

    Take everything from this guy with a pile of salt. He loves the camera and stirring controversy.
