Recently, a fight broke out between two groups of men near Chermen, a village that stands at the modern-day border between the republics of North Ossetia-Alania and Ingushetia in Russia’s Caucasus.

The fight, divided along ethnic lines between the Ingush and Ossetians, quickly grew in size. Dozens of people joined the brawl on each side, with their cars blocking the major Caucasus highway at the juncture of the two republics, according to local media reports and videos from the scene.

Russian police and National Guard officers sent to the scene eventually broke up the fight.

“The recent brawl is certainly the largest flare-up of tensions at the border in some time, but regional and federal authorities are heavily incentivized to assuage tensions quickly,” said North Caucasus analyst Harold Chambers.

“Crackdown on civil society by authorities in Ingushetia eroded the positions of some of the leaders who would typically help mediate such scenarios. There are additional tensions in both republics not related to interethnic conflict, so the Kremlin wants even more to avoid a flare-up at this time,” Chambers told The Moscow Times. Once an important center of Ingush political life, Chermen plays a special role in the present-day dispute, hosting a border checkpoint where travelers crossing the border of the two republics must be inspected by a Moscow-controlled police unit.

North Ossetian officials say the checkpoint, which was taken over by federal authorities during the 1992 war, must remain in place as a vital part of counter-terrorism measures.

But most Ingush advocate for dismantling the border post that reinforces the line of separation from their historic lands, where many ethnic Ingush still live to this day.

Commenting on the most recent incident at the border, North Ossetia’s head Sergei Menyailo dubbed it “a domestic dispute” that was “exploited by provocateurs on social media.”

Menyailo also suggested restricting entry to the republic in case of similar incidents in the future — a proposition that infuriated many in Ingushetia.
