Hundreds of people stormed into the main airport in Russia’s Dagestan region and onto the landing field Sunday, chanting antisemitic slogans and seeking passengers arriving on a flight from Tel Aviv, Israel, Russian news agencies and social media reported.

Russian news reports said the crowd surrounded the airliner, which belonged to Russian carrier Red Wings.

Authorities closed the airport in Makhachkala, the capital of the predominantly Muslim region, and police converged on the facility. Dagestan’s Ministry of Health said more than 20 people were injured, with two in critical condition. It said the injured included police officers and civilians.

It’s Russians all the way down…

They're not Russians.

Don't they have Russian "passport" ? How can you tell Russian apart? Are e.g Siberians also not Russians ?

They are citizens of Russia, but not Russians ethnically. Just like a Japanese person with a US passport is not suddenly white person of European descent.

Japanese who is also US citizen is American .
Also Russian is not race , Western Russian are mostly Caucasian, which is probably what you call white person of European decent. So according to your logic , There are no Russians in Russia 😅 👍

Wut?

Not sure what to answer.... let me try one similar level... Doggy sounds... Wuf

You wrote complete bullshit, what kind of a reply do you expect?

At least about what could come from average IQ, i guess. Seems i was too hopeful.
