Islam Makhachev has repeatedly drawn attention to what he calls the "chaotic construction" problem in Dagestan, particularly in Makhachkala. He criticizes the low-quality residential complexes built tightly together and the numerous unauthorized constructions plaguing the region. Seventeen days ago, during flooding in Dagestan, Makhachev appealed to regional leadership to address the construction issues, stating that Makhachkala has turned into one massive chaotic construction site. Recently, he reposted content from geographer Dmitry Koryukhin, a school teacher in Dagestan, who shared aerial photographs of Makhachkala showing what was described as an urban catastrophe. The post praises Makhachev for recognizing and highlighting this regional problem.
