In Yekaterinburg, security forces busted an illegal Wahhabi cell the organization has existed since late 2025, with hundreds of Islamists attending meetings. A total of four Islamist sects operated within the group. One of the premises where such meetings and religious ceremonies were held is in vegetable warehouse No. 4 in Yekaterinburg. The leaders of all four sects were brought to administrative responsibility only under Article 5.26 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation - for violating the legislation on freedom of conscience, religion and religious associations. They received fines of up to 40 thousand rubles. Two of them turned out to be foreign experts. They were expelled from Russia and also banned from entering for 50 years. They didn't even expel all the members of the community, only the organizers. Well, what could happen? We worked for at least a year, hundreds of Wahhabis listened to radical sermons, the seeds of anger were sown, it cannot be assumed that those who listen to sermons will create their own cells. How can you kick them all out, but what about brotherhood and the "smart plan"? "Multinational".
