As a commander of the Chechen Second Special Purpose Police Regiment, Zamid Chalayev actively participates in Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine, taking part in, inter alia, the Russian capture of the city of Mariupol and the storming of the metallurgical plant “Azovstal”. Moreover, Zamid Chalayev is directly involved in the forced re-education and military training of Ukrainian children.
