[KavkazUzel] The government of Dagestan has allocated an additional 15 million rubles for accommodation and food for Palestinian refugees arriving in the republic.

The "Caucasian Knot" wrote that on November 21, 2003, the Dagestan authorities announced that they were ready to accept up to 200 refugees from Palestine, and 8.2 million rubles had been allocated for their accommodation. By January 9, 156 displaced people from Palestine, including 81 children, were accommodated at a recreation center near Makhachkala. 62 people have already received Russian passports, the issue of the legal status of other migrants is being resolved, the administration of the head of the republic reported. More than 30 migrants are ready to work in Dagestan, mainly in the healthcare sector, the head of the Republic’s Ministry of Labor reported. 12 displaced people from Palestine asked to be enrolled in universities to receive free higher education in Dagestan, the republican ombudsman said after a meeting with refugees.

Another 15 million rubles have been allocated to organize the accommodation of Palestinian refugees, the government of Dagestan announced today. This money will be used to organize temporary accommodation and food for Palestinian refugees who are in a temporary accommodation center. The recreation center near Makhachkala is home to 157 people who arrived from the Gaza Strip, including 75 adults and 82 children, according to a message on the Telegram channel of the government of Dagestan.

The reception of immigrants from Palestine was organized on the initiative of the federal authorities, suggested Caucasus experts Akhmet Yarlykapov and Ruslan Kutaev. The decision to accept a small number of Palestinians was made by the authorities of the republics, since it is  beneficial to their image  and will not hit the budget, objected political scientist Sergei Zhavoronkov.

Muslims in the North Caucasus reacted sharply to the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict that began in October. You can read about who and how in the North Caucasus Federal District expressed support for Palestine in the “Caucasian Knot” document “ Actions in support of Palestine in the North Caucasus.”

The fighting between Israel and the Palestinian Hamas movement began on October 7, 2023, with the firing of hundreds of rockets into Israeli territory, including civilian targets and civilians. The Israel Defense Forces responded by launching a military operation against Hamas, after which Israel announced a blockade of the Gaza Strip: supplies of water, food, electricity, medicine, and fuel were suspended. Thousands of people died on both sides.

The Islamic movement Hamas  is recognized as terrorist, in particular, in the United States and the European Union. In Russia, the movement has not been declared terrorist, since none of its representatives have been convicted in Russia, the Prosecutor General’s Office said in response to a request from a deputy from St. Petersburg.
