Islam Makhachev has repeatedly drawn attention to Dagestan's construction crisis, particularly in Makhachkala. He has called out poorly planned residential complexes built too close together and numerous unauthorized buildings. Seventeen days ago, during flooding in Dagestan, Makhachev appealed to regional leadership to address construction issues, stating that Makhachkala has become one chaotic construction site. Today he reposted content from geographer Dmitry Koryukhin, a school teacher in Dagestan, who shared aerial photos highlighting the urban disaster. Makhachev's comments reflect his concern for his home region's development problems.
