Ingush officials deny Umarov's death

The head of the Ingush Republic, Yunus-bek Yevkurov, has announced that Doku Umarov was not among the militants killed recently during a special operation.

"DNA testing has shown that Doku Umarov's body is not among the corpses of the recently killed militants. That means that there is no evidence of his death," Interfax quotes Yevkurov.

Information that the head of the Chechen separatist movement was killed appeared in the media at the beginning of April.
