Islam Makhachev has repeatedly drawn attention to the problem of haphazard construction in Dagestan, particularly in Makhachkala. Seventeen days ago, during flooding in the region, Makhachev called on local 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, showing aerial photos that highlight the urban planning catastrophe. The posts describe low-quality residential complexes built extremely close together, often 30 stories high, along with widespread illegal construction. Makhachev's advocacy on this civic issue demonstrates his engagement with regional problems beyond fighting.
