Islam Makhachev criticizes construction chaos in Dagestan amid flooding

Islam Makhachev has once again drawn attention to what he calls "chaotic construction" in Dagestan, particularly in Makhachkala. The UFC lightweight champion reposted content from geographer Dmitry Koryukhin, a school teacher in Dagestan, who shared aerial images highlighting the urban planning disaster in the capital city. Seventeen days earlier, during severe flooding in Dagestan, Makhachev had appealed to regional leadership to address the construction issues, stating that "Makhachkala has turned into one chaotic construction site." The post notes that low-quality residential complexes are being built close together across Russia, often standing half-empty despite populations remaining stable or declining in many major cities.
