Islam Makhachev Criticizes Construction Problems in Dagestan

Islam Makhachev has repeatedly drawn attention to what he describes as chaotic construction issues in Dagestan, particularly in Makhachkala. The lightweight champion criticized the proliferation of poorly built residential complexes, unauthorized construction, and urban planning failures that have transformed the city into what he calls "one chaotic construction site." Seventeen days ago, during flooding in Dagestan, Makhachev appealed to regional leadership to address construction regulation. Most recently, he reposted content from geographer Dmitry Koryukhin showing aerial photographs that illustrate the urban development problems. Makhachev's social media advocacy highlights his concern for infrastructure and quality of life issues in his home region beyond his fighting career.
