Four militants were killed in two separate gun battles in Russia's volatile North Caucasus while bombs went off in both the capital of a third region and under a gas pipeline, Russian news agencies reported on Monday.
Violence has surged in the South Russian regions with the latest violence in three of the most volatile, Dagestan, Chechnya and Ingushetia, raising questions about the Kremlin's ability to keep control of the mainly Muslim area. (Reuters)
