Campaigns
- Operation "Chechevitsa": the Total Deportation of the Chechen People and the Special Settlement Regime (1943-1949)
and by 1 March 1944 the Soviet NKVD (predecessor of today's FSB) reported 387,229 deported Chechens - 478,479 people together with the Ingush
The supreme organ of the occupation authority (the "Politburo of the TsK VKP(b)") had been discussing the deportation a year before the announced pretext - the accusation that the people had aided the Germans: on 11 February 1943 the talk was already about timing, and Stalin "leaned toward the second proposal" - to deport after the Germans had been driven from the Caucasus
Procedures
- Operation "Chechevitsa": the Total Deportation of the Chechen People and the Special Settlement Regime (1943-1949) — technique Deportation
On 7 February, at a meeting with Beria, "concrete tasks were set for organizing the deportation of 459,486 Chechens and Ingush - 97,635 families," and the date was fixed: 22-23 February
- under a cover story: "rumors were spread about large-scale tactical exercises in the mountains of Chechnya and Ingushetia"
Isakieva writes: "Instead of the clubs, the men were driven (and marched) to assembly points under reinforced armed guard"
- Operation "Chechevitsa": the Total Deportation of the Chechen People and the Special Settlement Regime (1943-1949) — technique Mass Killings of Civilians
Isakieva writes: at the end of March 1944 NKVD troops "shot" the residents of mountainous Malkhista, whom they had failed to reach in February because of snowfall
- Operation "Chechevitsa": the Total Deportation of the Chechen People and the Special Settlement Regime (1943-1949) — technique Terror
Isakieva writes about the columns from the mountain villages: "Those who could not walk were led out of the column and shot, without even permission to bury them"
- Operation "Chechevitsa": the Total Deportation of the Chechen People and the Special Settlement Regime (1943-1949) — technique Legal Segregation of the Population
…and Ingush ("special settlers" in the colonizer's terms) over 12 years of age to report monthly to the special commandant's office - the agency's surveillance post at the place of exile; from age 16 the commandant's office opened personal files; the colonizer forbade them to join the Bolshevik party, its youth league (the "Komsomol") and the trade unions, and did not take them into the army
- Operation "Chechevitsa": the Total Deportation of the Chechen People and the Special Settlement Regime (1943-1949) — technique Administrative-Territorial Division
The colonizer abolished the very republic of the Chechens and Ingush and carved up their land among its neighbors: on 7 March 1944 the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR issued the decree "On the Liquidation of the Checheno-Ingush ASSR and the Administrative Organization of Its Territory"
The abolition was given legal form by the law of 25 June 1946
