Islam Makhachev highlights construction problems in Dagestan after flooding

Islam Makhachev has once again drawn attention to construction issues in Dagestan, particularly chaotic building projects including poorly constructed residential complexes and unauthorized construction. Following recent flooding in the region, Makhachev urged regional leadership 17 days ago to address construction oversight, stating that Makhachkala has become "one chaotic construction site." He recently reposted content from geographer Dmitry Koryukhin, a schoolteacher in Dagestan, who shared aerial photos illustrating the urban development problems. Makhachev's advocacy highlights broader infrastructure and urban planning challenges facing the region beyond just the immediate flood response.
