"Central Asian Men Arrested in Russia's Dagestan Anti-Terror Operation"

Three men from Central Asia were arrested in southern Russia for allegedly plotting a bomb attack in the Stavropol region, following the recent Islamic State terrorist attack in Moscow. The suspects were seen shopping for bomb-making materials before being apprehended by Russian security forces. The arrests come amid heightened tensions and crackdowns on Central Asian migrants in Russia, where they form a vital part of the workforce. Experts suggest that the recruitment of attackers from Central Asia fits a pattern of vulnerable migrant workers being targeted by extremist groups, while Russian officials are cautioned against overly aggressive measures due to the country's worker shortage.
