Moscow: Two militants and two special forces officers have been killed in a security operation in Nazran, the Republic of Ingushetia this Thursday. 

The National Anti-Terrorism Committee said that security services acting on a tip surrounded a house in Nazran in the province of Ingushetia where the two suspects were hiding. They refused to surrender and opened fire on security force.
Both suspects were killed in Thursday’s firefight, and two officers of the Federal Security Service, the main KGB successor agency, also died.
