Procedures
- The disarmament of Chechnya: a military operation with artillery shelling and bombing of auls (1925) — technique Military Intervention
Zhupikova relates - "The organs of the OGPU gathered information about the most influential mullahs and sheikhs, about the honored elders, about the guides without whom it was impossible to penetrate into the mountains"
- The disarmament of Chechnya: a military operation with artillery shelling and bombing of auls (1925) — technique Forced Disarmament
Zhupikova, what was removed amounted to "approximately 75% of what the population had before the start of the operation and approximately half of the weapons removed in all the highland oblasts"
The taking of weapons began even before the troops went in, with the inhabitants divided up by lists: from those entered in the lists of the "vicious element" and their relatives "the local revkoms took the weapons away, while registering those of the remaining inhabitants"
- The disarmament of Chechnya: a military operation with artillery shelling and bombing of auls (1925) — technique Indiscriminate Attacks
Zhupikova, "104 one-pud bombs [about 1.7 tonnes] were dropped on the 16 auls where the leaders of the insurgents were hiding"
- The disarmament of Chechnya: a military operation with artillery shelling and bombing of auls (1925) — technique Collective Punishment
Zhupikova writes: "They and their relatives bore material responsibility for all cases of theft on the territory of Chechnya"
One could leave the list only by an oath with an obligation to inform: "If the 'vicious element' took an oath that for a year he would not rob and would inform on thieves, he was struck from the list"
When the troops reached the mountains, the destroyed was counted by the same category: as the result of the bombing of 16 auls "119 houses of the 'vicious element' were blown up"
- The disarmament of Chechnya: a military operation with artillery shelling and bombing of auls (1925) — technique Forced Surrender of Fugitives and Rebels
Breaking the custom would have disgraced the highlander for many generations and would have threatened his clan with blood vengeance from the man he had handed over"
