A serviceman from Dagestan was killed in the SVO.

Farid Dzhumagishiev was killed in Ukraine. Since the beginning of the military operation, at least 1,999 fighters from Dagestan have been officially recognized as killed.

According to the "Caucasian Knot," as of June 19, government and security officials officially recognized at least 1,998 fighters from Dagestan as killed in Ukraine.

State awards, memorial plaques, and appearances on Channel One do not guarantee state support for the families of those killed, according to the "Caucasian Knot" article "Three Comrades Served: How Authorities Are Depriving Families of Killed Volunteers of Benefits," which describes the stories of the killed fighters.

Farid Dzhumagishiev, a serviceman, was killed in the military operation in Ukraine and was posthumously awarded The Medal "For Courage" and the Order of Courage. A memorial plaque honoring Dzhumagishiev was unveiled in the village of Karagas, the Nogai District administration announced on its VKontakte page.

Thus, at least 1,999 servicemen from Dagestan have been officially recognized as killed in Ukraine.

As a reminder, Dagestan ranks first among the regions of the North Caucasus Federal District in the number of those killed, whose names have been officially released by the authorities. Sergei Melikov, who led Dagestan in February 2022, was the first government official to announce that a Russian soldier had been killed in Ukraine, acknowledging the death of officer Nurmagomed Gadzimagomedov.

The "Caucasian Knot" maintains a list of names of natives of the North Caucasus and Southern Federal Districts killed in the military operation. The list was compiled based on data officially released by government officials and law enforcement agencies, according to the "Caucasian Knot" report "Northeastern Military District Statistics: Losses Are Growing in Southern Russia".
