Alleged incidents of racial and xenophobic violence and attacks against foreigners and
migrants. According to the information received, these attacks took place after an
alleged murder committed by a migrant from the North Caucasus on the night of 9-10
October 2013 in Moscow’s Biryulyovo district. After this event, several incidents of
alleged racially motivated violence and attacks against foreigners and migrants
occurred in different locations across Russia. On 13 October 2013, thousands of
people marched through the Biryulyovo district in Moscow at night, demanding that
the police find the alleged killer. Clashes ensued when riot police confronted
protesters and were pelted with bottles, sticks and rocks. Subsequently, on 4
November 2013, a demonstration called “Russian March” was accompanied by
violent attacks against ethnic minorities and foreigners working in Moscow.
Nationalist rallies were also held in other Russian cities, including St Petersburg,
Kazan and Irkutsk, and included attacks on trains and against religious minorities.
