Two schools have been opened in the flood-affected villages of Dagestan.

Modular schools in the villages affected by the spring flood — Adilyotare and Tsiyab-Tsilitli — were opened today, reported the authorities.

Today, new schools built after the spring flood in the village of Adilyotar in the Khasavyurt district and Tsiyab-Tsilitli in the Gumbetov district were officially opened, reported the acting head of Dagestan, Fyodor Shchukin, on his Telegram channel today.

"This is a long-awaited and significant event for all of us. After the spring flood that destroyed the previous buildings, it was important to build new ones as quickly as possible so that children could continue their studies in their native villages. A total of 130 educational institutions were affected as a result of the emergency in the republic. Thanks to the support of the President and the Government of Russia, and the federal Ministry of Education, we were able to promptly begin restoration, and where necessary – construction," he noted on his Telegram channel.

In the new schools, there are all the conditions for organizing the educational process and useful leisure activities. "A modern communication system is also provided: the schools are equipped with their own boiler houses, treatment facilities, water filtration systems, and backup power supply," Shchukin added.

The day before, the administration of the Khasavyurt district reported the completion of landscaping at the school in the village of Adilyotar. "Classes are already taking place at the school, and the educational process is organized in a regular mode. At the same time, work on landscaping the adjacent territory is being completed," the message states.

"The Caucasian Knot" also reported that residents of the Khasavyurt district affected by the spring flood said that they had to seek payments through the prosecutor's office, undergo repeated inspections of their homes, and turn to independent experts. Officials did not explain the reasons for the refusals and canceled previously made decisions regarding the need for major repairs, the villagers complained.

Floods caused by heavy rains began in the North Caucasus at the end of March and became one of the most destructive in recent years. Dagestan and Chechnya were the most affected by the disaster, according to a report from "The Caucasian Knot" "Spring Flood in the North Caucasus-2026". Materials on flooding in the republics of the North Caucasus Federal District in the spring of 2026 were collected by "The Caucasian Knot" on the thematic page "Flooding in the North Caucasus".
