Russian police open fire on pr
MOSCOW, April 25 (Reuters) - Russian police killed one man and seriously wounded four others on Tuesday when they opened fire on protesters in the north Caucasus region of Dagestan, local media said.
Some 700 protesters were demanding the resignation of the local administration in the village of Usukhchai, which lies in the mountains of the region's south, and had blocked the road, Ekho Moskvy radio reported.
They refused to disperse when tear gas fired at them and police opened fire when the protesters tried to seize the village hall.
Dagestan, to the east of war-torn Chechnya, has been rocked by violence between Islamist rebels and police. Analysts say the fighting is driven by public anger over official corruption in the impoverished region.
Bombings and clashes are frequent, and Ekho Moskvy reported that some of the protesters fired back at the police, wounding at least one. It quoted witnesses as saying a total of 20 protesters had been injured. Other media reported four of them had been sent to hospital with life-threatening wounds.
Russian officials say their hardline policies in the Caucasus, where they refuse to hold talks with separatist rebels that have fought their rule in Chechnya for 11 years, are paying off, but clashes are common.
A rebel ambush killed two Russian soldiers as they were returning from an operation in armoured vehicles, news agencies reported on Tuesday morning.
