Line 76: On December 19, 2007, police blocked Gimry after the assassination of Deputy Gazimagomed Magomedov a few days before, and detained several local men accusing them of being supporters of [[Salafist]] rebels with links to [[Chechnya]]. Gimry was blockaded for several days and local residents claim that Russian soldiers have stolen from them and terrorized them during house-to-house searches. Gimry is one of the spiritual homes of Islam in the Eastern [[Caucasus]]. In 2014 Russian soldiers again besieged Gimry, while trying to capture Gimry native [[Magomed Suleymanov]], who had been proclaimed emir of the Caucasus Emirate. Gimry remained blocked by Russian troops to all except its residents for a while.<ref>{{cite news\|title=Russia and Islamic State: Caucasian jihad\|url=~~http~~https://www.economist.com/news/europe/21656731-islamic-state-recruiting-volunteers-caucasus-russia-may-be-letting-them-go-caucasian\|accessdate=5 July 2015\|work=[[The Economist]]\|date=4 July 2015}}</ref> As of October 2015, each resident had to give a 5-digit number to enter or leave town, while all others had to register and foreigners were not permitted.<ref>Washington Post, 28oct15, page A1, 'The other Russian supply line'</ref>{{update-inline\|date=July 2016}} ==See also==
