Timeline
A cell of six militants, of whom half were wanted by Russian authorities for a previous attack in 2022,[1] barricaded themselves in a third-floor apartment, engaging in a lengthy firefight with Russian special forces.[4] Small-arms fire and explosives were exchanged between government and militant forces for hours continuously. A counter-terrorism operation regime was declared in Karabulak,[5] and the surrounding streets were consequently blocked off, as residents of the apartment complex were evacuated to a nearby school.[1]
By noon of 3 March, TASS reported that the firefight was effectively over and that the militants were all killed,[4] though Russian independent sources claimed that government forces also sustained casualties, and a bystander was killed.[1][2]
